Our aim is to reduce the barriers for people accessing quality medical care. We do this by keeping our fees as low as possible, providing transport to those who are unable to travel, and by providing culturally appropriate services for high needs populations.
Our transport service is from your address to Te Puna Hauora Clinic and back only. Families with no other means of transport, elderly or frail, and People with a disability, are eligible for this free or donation service.
