Urgent Care wait times
We understand that waiting to be seen can be incredibly frustrating but here are some things to think about before seeing our clinical staff that will help speed up the entire Shorecare process.
Clinical questions:
- How long have you been unwell and what symptoms are troubling you?
- Have you had this before?
- What medication have you taken/given to the sick child today?
- The names of all regular long term medications currently being taken and if you have any allergies.
- Think about the way an accident happened and what got hurt and how.
- What is your vaccination status e.g. tetanus
Please remember to think about the others waiting to be seen and avoid bringing in extra "while I'm here requests". We are an urgent care clinic and are here to see you for the urgent matter at hand, not your long term concerns.
Even if a person went ahead of you, the staff have a good reason - one day if you have a dangerous condition we will do the exact same thing for YOU.
If the Doctor seems like they are hurrying, it is because they are busy and not because they are not interested or are uncaring - it may be way after their due meal break or finishing time but they are there for you.
It is very common for our hardworking staff to work overtime and skip extra tea breaks so that they can continue to care for you and make your wait time as short as possible.
Thanks for helping keep our wait times down!
Another happy home after new carpet installed
We successfully installed the new carpet for a lovely family in Greenhithe. We came to do the QA check, we say x2 lovely young children joyfully walking on the new carpet, at that moment, we feel like all our efforts had been well paid off.
We are thankful to our community and will be continuously contributing to our community.
Thanks

The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.
This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.
We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?
Poll: Is Auckland’s economy improving?
The latest reporting from The Post suggests a wave of optimism for 2026. With interest rates finally heading south, businesses are feeling more positive. But for many on the ground, the real-world recovery feels a bit like a slow-moving commute on Auckland's motorways.
We want to know: Are you seeing signs of Auckland's economy improving in your industry or neighbourhood? Whether it's busier shops, new projects kicking off, or just a shift in the mood ...
