Fungal Nails Beware
Did you spend last summer hiding your nails because of an unsightly fungal infection? If so you have plenty of good company. Around 10% of the overall population has the affliction meaning that there are 139,999 others out there just like you in Auckland.
Fortunately, help is at hand, the Laser Nail Clinic in the Northshore Medical complex on Sunset road, are specialists in treating this humiliating infection. Since 2014 they have treated literally thousands of nails using the “state of the art” PinPointe Laser machine, a machine created in the USA specifically for this purpose and having FDA clearance to do so.
The clinic is located at Suite 18 of the Northshore Medical Centre, 326 Sunset Rd, Windsor Park. To make a booking or for more information call John on 09 4755 273 or go to our very informative website – www.lasernailclinic.co.nz.
Heres what our clients have to say:
Highly recommend this clinic! The results and progress I'm getting from laser treatment has produced the best results that creams and pills have been unable to do, slow process but seeing some great results over the 5 treatments I have had! Thank you!

I am writing to say thank you so much for your excellent service. I am now cured of my nail Fungi, which I am sure I caught from a Nail bar overseas. Your absolute patience as far as my time being very busy and booking me in was superb, and you always followed up with a lovely friendly call. Your team are excellent, and worked hard to solve the problem I had, always professional, spotlessly clean and welcoming. I will certainly refer others to your practice. I wanted to take this time to thank you all.

Animal Abuser
🚨 URGENT WARNING TO ALL LOST & FOUND / PET REHOMING PAGES 🚨 and people rehoming pets or reporting lost animals.
It has come to our attention that a long-term, repeat animal abuser is still actively obtaining animals through Facebook groups.
The type of animal does not matter — birds, livestock, dogs, small pets — anything he can access.
He monitors rehoming pages. He approaches people offering “help.” He presents as reasonable. He will say the right things.
Do not give this person any animals under any circumstances.
If you are an admin of a lost & found page, a community group, or a pet rehoming group:
• Please stay vigilant
• Check profiles carefully
• Share this warning across your networks
Animals have already paid the price for people not knowing.
If you are unsure about someone requesting an animal, ask rescue groups to help.
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
