Naenae Medical Centre is a GP practice at 39 Treadwell Street in Naenae, Lower Hutt. It provides primary health care that is subsidised for enrolled patients, and it is a teaching practice for the Royal New Zealand College of General Practitioners, so a GP trainee works alongside the partners.
Services include digital consults by video, phone or email, which need a smartphone or computer. A lab service is run on site by Wellington SCL every day from 8am to 9.15am, and patients hand in their form to reception. Repeat prescriptions should be ordered 48 hours ahead, online or through the Vensa patient portal. Patients who have not been seen for six months may be asked to come in. Payment arrangements can be made with reception, and automatic payment forms are available. The practice may charge for a missed appointment or a late cancellation, so patients should call as soon as possible if they cannot attend.
Recent news: from 2 February, the practice is not offering in-practice ADHD assessments. GPs can still refer patients to psychiatric services, and the New Zealand Telepsych Network offers a self-referral service for adult ADHD assessments.
