Service here is just terrible all the way through from the receptionist to the nurses to the doctors... All they said is it your symptoms are not too bad and it shouldnt take too long for you to recover.You can take paracetamol Or Ibuprofen, the one and only magic medicine (for adults) they always prescribed no matter what.In the other hand, we had a situation here with our son where we saw the doctors 3-4 times and nothing was done until I said we have a private insurance so please to be referred to a paediatrician. That was the only way our son could get through his 3-4 months sickness, fortunately enough the medicine prescribed by the specialist (note, the specialist DO NOT work for Peninsula) cured our son.The system here at Peninsula is just broken.If you have a chance to go somewhere else do NOT hesitate to do it.

Best doctors and nurses, always helpfull and especially nurse Helen.Ive had years of stomach pain that needed to be treated and i suffer from anxiety to antibiotics due to a bad experience in my past.There was no way ill be able to do a triple therapy with antibiotics.I have been to councelling, i tried to do everything so i can take the triple therapy and nothing was working until i meet nurse Helen.With tears in my eyes i write this review as she is the only one that gave me so much courage and talked me into doing it assuring me that i will be safe even if i had an alergic reaction.I have no words in thanking her (nurse Helen) for her warm heart and making me feel safe when i take my therapy.Thank you nurse Helen from the bottom of my heart for not only being a nurse but for caring for your patients as much as you have for me.Kind Regards,Lavinia Barbaroussis

Just left this medical centre and Im appalled by the attitude of the elderly lady receptionist. The WAY she spoke to me was very rude. Not what she said but HOW she said it. I called to let her know, and Im sure the Male receptionist that picked the phone told her why I called because she still had attitude and she wasnt remorseful when I explained to her that I didnt like how she spoke to me and how she made me feel. Im disgusted that a human being would hurt another human being and remain cold about it. Sad that one person can taint a place where other people are working hard to make everyone feel welcome.

I waited a week to have an appointment at this medical centre. When I showed up for my appointment at the scheduled time, I was told that I had cancelled my own appointment on the day I made the booking. I only made one call to them that day and that was to make the booking. I even received a text reminder yesterday that I have my appointment today. Receptionist was apologetic but had no explanation why my appointment magically got cancelled. I expected the issue to be rectified and to still be seen today as I had taken time off work. Instead, I am now rebooked in for later in the week and will have to wait another few days to be seen. Very disappointing!

I am not a client however have been extremely unwell for a week and rung Healthline who advised me to get a covid test. Since I am unwell they advised to go as close to home as possible and gave me 3 testing stations to ring. When I rung Peninsula the receptionist was rude unsympathetic and said healthline shouldnt have done that. She gave me a special covid 0800 number which was healthlines number again. I rung this surgery back and spoke to another rude receptionist who was not helpful or caring in any way. Fair enough if they dont do the the testing but the manner in which they spoke and their lack of helpfulness they should work elsewhere. And as a side note they DO covid testing

Staff were very rude and disrespectful. Plenty of better places nearby if you expect to be treated according to professional standards. Great place if you already have zero self-respect.

They’ve gone downhill a lot. I used to see Aine McCoy who was fabulous, but when she retired I was told I would have a replacement sorted “shortly.” I was never advised who this was, it’s been nearly a year now so whenever I see a doctor I’m just advised to go with whoever’s available. Means so much inconsistency. Wait times are horrendous, even going off-peak times as I’m a shift worker; one time I waited 30 minutes, advised reception and they said it wouldn’t be much longer. Another 15 minutes and I had to leave for work - the girl apologised but by then it was too late. Looking elsewhere now, it’s a shame.

If it was just for the rude staff then id be able to live with it but the fact that Dr. Jeffrey Law has now on two independent occasions proved to be the worst doctor ive ever consulted is absolutely unacceptable.My mother came to visit New Zealand and needed a consultation with the results of a blood test to be sent to her doctor in Switzerland just in case shed require further treatment.Dr. Law was supposed to send the results as they go to him directly but he never did.He also displayed a unwillingness to even take the necessary tests to make sure everything is ok. Simply on the basis that her illness is rare in NZ.What if she would have needed further treatment? Her doctor would have never received the results and could not have taken action.The other occasion was 2 years ago when i went to the clinic with a kidney infection, weak and delirious... he refused to give me antibiotics or even order blood tests even though i had been laying in bed with fever for a whole weekend and had lost about 5kg because i couldnt eat anything.Only my partner raising her voice convinced him to order tests and prescribe antibiotics.This kind of behaviour is dangerous!He should be fired!
