Nadia T. replied:
Dr Luke at Dodson Medical is brilliant.
Alexia W. replied:
Is your daughters eczema/allergies caused by food, dust, animals, environment? My daughter also has eczema and allergies to lots of things, food and otherwise. Same with my husband. We had their allergies treated through kineaseology at Health and Wellness. They can eat foods that they once reacted to, can pat/cuddle cats and have no allergic reaction etc. it's amazing. Highly recommend this over doctors writing scripts for steroid cream after steroid cream etc. http://naturalallergytreatment.com.au/

Can anyone recommend a great local family doctor in the Birkenhead/Birkdale area? We bought a home here over a year ago but are still going back to our previous doctors...
Anona W. replied:
It may not be super close, but Coastcare Chartwell is AMAZING. A true family doctor who knows everyone by name and go the extra mile every time. Our doctor is Obai Said, but have seen other docs there, and they're fantastic. There's also a Coastcare on Birkenhead road and they're good too.
Georgia D. replied:
Wouldn't recommend Coastcare Birkenhead, similar feeling.
Andy B. replied:
Coastcare Birkenhead is great imo
Amanda F. replied:
We love Coastcare Chartwell too. I'm under Anna Grinchy but my 3 year old has seen Dr Said regularly. They do late nights and see kids without delays and appointment times are kept so you don't have to wait more than 5 mins. Have been to the birkenhead one too where we've see Dr Said.
John T. replied:
Dr John Arcus Beachhaven Medical
Kate S. replied:

Annabelle H. replied:
Jan Raymond at Mother Well, Mt Eden. In fact any of the GP's at Mother Well are good, but I think the other two are part time so trickier to get appts. Bit of a hike from Glenfield but Jan is excellent and very knowledgeable in all things alternative (but also will prescribe mainstream meds where required). Hope that helps.
Ruth asks: Can anyone recommend a good family doctor in/near Titirangi for me and my three under fives?
Tatiana Z. replied:
If this is not too far for you, there is New centre Health New Lynn is pretty good, right next to shopping mall, big new building and got all new equipment. Free parking for up to 2 hours.
Ruth T. replied:
Thanks so much everyone - really helpful. Titirangi Medical Centre has closed its books unfortunately so I'll check out the other options.
Becs H. replied:
Health new Lynn get my vote. Have always managed to get an appointment to see the same Dr (Dr Woolford is awesome!). Have also taken my 14 month old in on a Saturday in an 'emergency' situation and was seen very quickly by the on-call Dr who was lovely too and it only cost $5. Was really impressed, a much more pleasant experience for this stressed mummy than any white cross or after hours I've been to before:-)
Deborah T. replied:
I also recommend the Drs at Titirangi Medical. We see Dr Sheetal Patel.
Ruth F. replied:
Cushla at Green Bay Medical Centre is wonderful
Tatiana Z. replied:
Oops, I see you asked for a doctor rather than med centre. We go to Gail Houng-Lee at Health New Lynn, she is great, but doesn't work every day, so my 1 yo been seen by dr Phil (don't remember surname), and he's been great too.
