A private surgical hospital at 9 St Marks Road in Remuera, Auckland. It opened in 1987 as New Zealand's first purpose-built short-stay surgical hospital, and it has since expanded to four operating theatres, stage one recovery, day-stay recovery areas and a 17-bed overnight stay facility. It treats patients across a range of surgical specialties, and the website says it sees around 5,000 patients a year with a staff of around 90. Overnight rooms are air conditioned and have an ensuite and television, and the hospital provides meals and can cater for special diets.
The website lists reception hours of 9am to 8pm, Monday to Friday, with the hospital closed at weekends. Patient and visitor parking is normally available on site. Parents and carers can stay with children in hospital, and families can arrange a pre-admission visit so a child can see the hospital first. The hospital also has a child-friendly FAQ booklet and a storybook explaining treatment. General health enquiries should go to a GP, a specialist or an accident and emergency centre, and reception can be reached on 09 925 4700.
