About Kelburn Northland

A family practice at 1 Upland Road in Kelburn, Wellington, that offers general practice care for all ages. Its doctors include GPs with interests in women's health, contraception and menopause, and over-65s, as well as child health. The practice inserts IUDs, Mirena devices and contraceptive implants. It runs a menopause clinic with bespoke extended appointments, and patients can enquire about it at reception. Reception takes phone calls from 8am to 4:30pm, Monday to Friday, and the practice is closed on public holidays and weekends. Phones close 30 minutes early. Patients use the Myindici patient portal. Outside those hours, the website sends people to the Wellington Accident and Urgent Medical Centre for urgent care, or to the Wellington Hospital emergency department after 9pm.

Reviewers describe the nurses as professional and compassionate, and the staff as caring. One reviewer praises the doctor they see, and says the practice is a worthy successor to a longtime local GP. Another says the quality of care depends on which doctor is available, and the wait to see a preferred doctor can be long. The practice is one of several clinics nearby. Kelburn GPs, 0.3 km away, and Plimmer Steps Medical Centre, 0.7 km away, both rate lower on their reviews.
