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

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
