Welcome to Katikati Medical Centre

Katikati Medical Centre is based in the rural town of Katikati some 40kms north of Tauranga. As a Primary Health Care provider we are your first choice for medical care in the region. With nine Doctors and eight Practice Nurses we provide a full range of Primary Health Care services.

We are committed to our patients and are Cornerstone accredited. This accreditation is recognition by the NZ College of GP’s that we have reached their very high standard and that we have processes in place to ensure we are continually improving and learning.

Our Vision is:

to be an innovative centre of excellence delivering high quality services to sustainably meet the needs of our patient, the community and to enhance the wider health care system.

We continually strive to reach this vision and work with a range of other health professionals in the Health Centre complex to meet the total health needs of the Katikati community.

Alert Level 2

All patients will still be offered phone or video appointments. If you don’t think that your doctor will need to examine you, please opt for telehealth. If you feel that being seen in person will make a real difference to the outcome of your consultation, please make an in person face appointment.

Please wait in your car until your appointment time. Reception will send you back to your car if you are early or if your doctor is running late.

Anyone coming into the medical centre MUST wear a mask.

Please bring a maximum of one other person into your appointment.

You MUST scan the QR code or sign in

On arrival you will be asked if you have a new/worsening cough, sore throat, runny nose, new/worsening shortness of breath, fever or diarrhoea. If you have these you will be sent back to your car. PLEASE DO NOT COME INTO THE MEDICAL CENTRE WITH THESE SYMPTOMS. If you have any of these symptoms please CALL on 07 549 0411 and we will set up a way to see you safely.

We know that these are stressful times. Please continue to be kind to yourselves, to each other and to our staff.
