Tawa Medical Centre

Would not recommend visiting if you have any mental health issues. I have been at this practice my whole life, I'm 25 now, and they're decent with physical health but I get the impression they would rather you take yourself out back than actually help with your mental health if you catch my drift. I have seen my current GP there since I was 15, and a decade later she is still mismanaging my sevre mental health condition. I have emailed a complaint to the reception and will be making a formal complaint with the Health and Disability Commissioner, but I wanted to warn other people, especially vulnerable young people, to stay away if you have any mental health conditions.

Quite pleased with the service from TMC particularly the Nurse Practitioner, Kate Hall.nFive stars is probably generous but I haven't had any issues with this service.

This place is crap making kids sit outside in the cold useless things need to be sorted there on the asap. As far as I'm concerned they should be shut down.

Friendly, helpful/courteous, professional - couldn't really fault them. Have been with them for almost 20 years, and never had a problem - have dealt with all my needs admirably.

It's alright I haven't seen my actual doctor in years. They over book themselves resulting in it being hard to get an actual booking when something is wrong. They're always late. Thankfully they have dropped their prices so it's more affordable than it has been. Community services cards are just worthless they won't give you anything for them. So if you can't afford the payment... Well do you really need both your legs? They add interest to their bills if you can't pay they increase the amount making it even harder. They are pretty nice and often do forgive the interest but with how extremely busy they are I'm not sure why they haven't lengthen their operating hours or opened another centre to refer the overload to.nnThis ended up more negative than I expected it to.
