About Birkenhead Medical Centre

A family-centred general practice at 4 Rawene Road in Birkenhead, next to the library, on Auckland's North Shore. The practice describes itself as relaxed and friendly, and it is Foundation Accredited, which means it meets the standards set by the Royal New Zealand College of General Practitioners. It is open Monday to Friday from 8am to 5pm, excluding public holidays, and is closed on weekends.

The practice offers a full range of general practice services. It does not offer ADHD assessments at present, and the practice says this is unlikely to change soon. Patients who want an assessment are asked to see their GP about referral to a specialist. The practice continues to provide care and prescriptions for patients who already have an established diagnosis. Since 1 February 2026, some patients may be eligible for prescriptions of up to 12 months, but this is decided by the GP case by case. New enrolments have been open and closed at different times, depending on whether each GP's list is accepting patients.
