Looking for a General Practitioner in Rotorua? Or perhaps not too sure what type of medical professional you need to see? Rotoruanz.info has information on a variety of health and fitness providers.

General Practitioners (GPs) are trained to deal with a range of problems a person might have. They take into consideration the whole body and environment when offering treatment. GPs are skilled in diagnosis especially at an early stage of a condition.  They also know where to refer you if you require further investigations or specialised treatment.

A GP can recognise, advise, treat or refer patients with any medical condition. Your doctor should provide a continuous service throughout a persons life and so will be able to advise on the needs of a baby with fever, an old person with memory loss as well as medical and psychological problems that occur at any age.

It’s free to register or enrol with a GP but they may charge a consultation fee each time you go to see them after that. Check with your GP services before you enrol on the consultation fees for each visit. If you enrol with a GP your care will be subsidised so you’ll pay a reduced consultation fee.

If you have a medical condition you think may need treatment you should see your GP or a nurse (or other primary health provider). They will assess your condition and discuss the best options with you. If you need to see a specialist your GP can refer you. The specialist may be from a public hospital or you could be referred to a private specialist if you are prepared to pay for a private consultation or if your health insurance covers this.
