The Doctors Mt Wellington is a family-friendly medical centre on Ellerslie Panmure Highway in Ellerslie, Auckland, offering what its team describes as expert care for you at every stage of life. Part of The Doctors network of medical centres across New Zealand, the clinic pairs an experienced local healthcare team with the convenience of a national group — online booking, a patient portal, and a telehealth option for the times when getting into the clinic is hard. For locals in Mt Wellington, Ellerslie and Panmure, it's designed to look after the whole household, from childhood immunisations to chronic condition management and skin checks later in life.
Care is delivered by experienced GPs, a Nurse Practitioner and practice nurses. Patients can book with Dr Dexter Loos or with Nurse Practitioner Monique Pearce. If you've never seen a Nurse Practitioner before, it's worth knowing they are registered nurses who have undertaken advanced education and have extensive clinical expertise — with only a few exceptions, they offer the same services as a doctor. GPs, meanwhile, provide expert primary care and long-term support for you and your family, working closely with the wider clinical team. That mix means more appointment options when you or the kids need to be seen.
The clinic covers the breadth of everyday family medicine. Long-term health is well supported, with dedicated care for diabetes, cardiovascular health and check-ups, and the management of chronic health conditions, alongside respiratory healthcare and mental health support. There are dedicated services for child and youth health, women's health, men's health and sexual health, plus travel health advice before you head overseas.
On the practical side, the team provides flu vaccinations, immunisations and infusions, blood test referrals and screening, repeat prescriptions, and skin checks and skin cancer care. Liquid nitrogen treatment and minor surgery are available in-clinic, and an ECG is offered as a specialist service. Occupational health services round out the list — useful for local workers and employers alike.
Enrolment is open to NZ citizens and eligible residents — have an NZ identity document ready and you can enrol online. Being enrolled brings real benefits: lower appointment fees and the ability to book, change and cancel appointments online once your enrolment has been processed. If you're newly enrolled and need to be seen before that confirmation comes through, the clinic asks you to phone 09 579 6953 and reception will help.
Casual patients are welcome too, and The Doctors Online lets both enrolled and casual patients see a GP from the national team by video, with next-available appointment times shown when you book.
Appointment fees depend on your age, whether you're enrolled, and whether you hold a Community Services Card, with reduced rates for CSC holders. GP visits are free for enrolled children aged 0–13, and there's a separate consult rate for overseas visitors. Keep in mind that additional charges apply for repeat prescriptions, procedures and materials — the clinic's payment terms are published on The Doctors website, so there are no surprises at the counter.
Like every practice in The Doctors group, Mt Wellington leans into digital tools. The Doctors App, available for Apple and Android, lets you book, change and cancel appointments easily, request repeat prescriptions, and view lab test results and health records — most of the routine admin of family healthcare, handled without a phone call.
The clinic is open Monday to Friday, 8:30am to 5:30pm, and closed on weekends. You'll find it at 350 Ellerslie Panmure Highway, Ellerslie, Auckland 1060 — phone 09 579 6953 or email [email protected]. Online booking and enrolment links are on The Doctors website, and the patient portal keeps everything in one place. Whether it's a flu shot before winter, a skin check, a repeat script or a family GP who knows your history, The Doctors Mt Wellington aims to be the neighbourhood medical centre that handles it all under one roof.
