About Milton Medical Centre

Milton Medical Centre is a general practice at 7 Eden Street in Milton, Clutha, about 40 minutes south of Dunedin, just off State Highway 1. Its distinctive feature is that it shares its practice with Lumino Dental and the Milton Community Health Trust, and it has visiting nurse specialists and access to counselling, physiotherapy and dental services.

Normal hours are 8:30am to 5pm, Monday to Friday. Outside those hours, including weekends and public holidays, the phone line at 03 417 8226 connects to a telephone triage service, which gives advice or puts callers through to rural after-hours telehealth provider Ka Ora Telecare. Consultations are 15 minutes. Enrolled patients pay lower fees, and a Community Services Card can be checked for eligibility. Payment is taken at the consultation by card, online banking or Medeor Pay by Link, and fees are shown in the waiting room.

Parking is available on site, including mobility parking, and there is plenty of free street parking nearby. Patients who miss an appointment without cancelling two hours ahead may be charged a fee. From 1 February 2026, doctors and nurse practitioners can issue longer prescriptions of up to 12 months, where that is safe for the patient.
