Today we are bidding farewell to Dr Peter Finlayson who has been with Invercargill Medical Centre from the very beginning.  Dr Finlayson has had a long career in General Practice having graduated from the University of Otago in 1979.  We wish him well.

As a patient you are welcome to book an appointment with any of our experienced Clinicians, this includes our General Practitioners, Nurse Practitioners, Nurse Prescribers and our Nursing team. 

Our Nurse Practitioners can diagnose, order tests and prescribe treatments and medications.  You can book an appointment with them as you would one of our General Practitioners.

Our Nurse Prescribers can prescribe some medicines for common and long-term conditions, you may be able to see them instead of a General or Nurse Practitioner.

If you are unsure about who to book your appointment with, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

We are currently recruiting for a General Practitioner or Nurse Practitioner.  We would love your help with our recruitment, please get in touch if you know someone who might be interested.

Our Appointments
Our appointments are 15 minutes. Out of respect for our team and our other patients, if you need more time or need to discuss multiple concerns, please book a double appointment. This will incur a double appointment charge. 

Repeat Prescriptions
We require 4 working days to process your prescription and send it to your Pharmacy.   Please don’t wait until your medication has run out to contact us.

There is a $19.50 charge for all prescriptions which reduces to $15.00 if you request a repeat of your regular medication via Manage My Health.

Manage My Health
