A note to our valued community and patients -

Saddle View from Green Island - Abbotsford

The team at Green island Medical Centre are experiencing high demand for our services at present.

Please call us two weeks in advance to book appointments for regular health care and repeat prescriptions.

We have limited appointments available and are affected by staff shortages like much of the country’s medical sector.

We have recently had a GP go on maternity leave with a new baby (Congratulations Dr Burton and family) and will say good-bye to Dr Thompson soon when he relocates to Wanaka.

Our team is committed to providing our patient community with the primary care they need when they need it and will continue to do our best for you and your family.

Come and try out our new Robo Doc as seen in a recent ODT article.

Our new building is under construction and we look forward to moving into it sometime next year.

Thank you,

GREEN ISLAND MEDICAL CENTRE

A riddle to start the festive season 🌲🎁🌟

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

I'm a fruit. If you take away my first letter, I'm a crime. If you take away my first two letters, I'm an animal. If you take away my first and last letter, I'm a form of music. What am I?

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
