The Doctors, Napier provides an integrated accident and family health service to our patients, seeing booked, enrolled patients as well as walk in patients.The Doctors was founded in Napier in 1989, and we are open every day of the year, with doctors providing on-call backup outside these hours.

In addition to the full range of primary care, we offer a number of additional services, including nurse-led health clinics and programmes giving patients expert guidance, support, or treatment. For patient convenience, we are also home to a physiotherapist, x-ray, midwives and pharmacy. All our systems are fully computerised, allowing us to access test results directly from the laboratory.
