Telemedicine 24/7 online service
If you need medical help when we are closed, or if you are not sure if you need to go to the Wellington After Hours clinic, you can access online video appointments.
Health NZ / Te Whatu Ora have introduced a new service for 24/7 online virtual consultations with either a GP, Emergency Medicine doctor, or Nurse Practitioner.
One of the approved providers is Practice Plus who we continue to promote as an option when you cannot be seen by us.
