What's happening at SSHC......
We sad to advise that Rachael Parkinson is leaving the practice. Her last day is on Thursday 4th December. We will miss her dearly and wish her all the best for her new adventures!
Eloise Yorke, one of our practices nurses that worked her a few years ago, is returning as a Nurse Practitioner and will take over from Rachael starting Monday 15th December. Eloise will be working Mondays and Tuesdays. All of Rachael's patients will transfer to Eloise, however, if you need to be seen on a day that Eloise does not work, you can still see Dr Geoffrey Carden.
PHONE PROMPTS have changed. We are trying to keep it as simple as possible. All prescription requests ONLY are option 3. All other requests (including nurse inquiries) are to come through reception which is option 1.
This month we welcome our new Registered Nurse Prescriber Amanda Read. Amanda comes to us with a wealth of nursing experience. She has clinics on Monday and Friday afternoons. Welcome to the team Amanda!
Dr Andy Williams, Dr Anna Eglinton and Dr Geoffrey Carden are at capacity, however, do have a wait list. Please complete the wait list form below and email to reception@sydneysthealth.co.nz.
We are currently experiencing large volume acute demand for same day appointments. This is normal for this time of year. If there are no available appointments that reception staff can give at the time, they will then will put you on a nurse callback list. The nurse will ring back to either offer some advice over the phone, fit you into an emergency appointment or redirect to after hours provider. Please talk to us first!
