Anna from Macular Degeneration NZ

Hi everyone, please don't take your vision for granted. Macular Degeneration is an age-related eye disease, affecting 1 in 7 people above the age of 50, and it is the leading cause of blindness in New Zealand!

There is a free talk next Saturday, 10th April from 10am - 11.30am at Waikanae Baptist Church (286 Te Moana Road) by ophthalmologist Dr. James Leong.

Please come and learn about the impact of Macular Degeneration, medical research, treatments and resources available. Register for the event at www.mdnz.org.nz... or email info@mdnz.org.nz. Call 0800 MACULA (0800 622852) for further information.

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.

While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.

And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?

Poll: How important is the ability to book a doctor’s appointment online?

The Doctors

Hi Neighbours
Here at The Doctors we would love to hear how you prefer to book your doctor’s appointments. With busy schedules, different people find different methods easier.

For some, online booking is very convenient, you can make an appointment anytime without needing to wait on the phone. Others still prefer calling the clinic and speaking to a real person, especially if they have specific questions about their visit.

Your feedback helps us understand what works best for our patients and how we can improve access to care.
