A family GP practice in central Hamilton, founded in 1911 right next door to its current site. It sits beside the Waikato River at 6 Little London Lane. The clinic cares for patients of all ages, with staff experienced in newborn, child, teen, older person, women's and men's health, and in long-term conditions. New patients are assigned a GP and join a practice that works with local community support agencies.
The clinic has a ramp for access and on-site parking, which is useful in a busy part of town. It is closed on weekends and public holidays. Online bookings are available. The clinic has moved to the Well patient portal from Manage My Health, so check how to register before you book.
Enrolled patients can also see a doctor after hours through Practice Plus, a virtual service on weekdays from 5pm to 10pm and on weekends and public holidays from 8am to 8pm. For urgent care at other times, Anglesea Clinic on Thackeray Street is open 24 hours, and Victoria Clinic on the corner of Anglesea and Thackeray Streets is open for urgent care until 8pm, seven days a week. For an emergency at any time, call 111.
The practice has a long local history. Dr Tim Rogers practised for about 60 years, and his sons Anthony and Dennis, both GPs, joined him. Dennis was mayor of Hamilton from 1959 to 1968, and Anthony was the Labour MP for Hamilton East from 1972 to 1975. Dr Barrie Winn joined in 1985.
