Mountainview Medical Centre

We are a multi-health professional general practice providing quality health care services to the South Taranaki District communities.

The Hāwera clinic is located close to the Hāwera CBD and is open every business day from 8:00am to 4:45pm. It offers a wide range of services including same-day prescriptions and same-day appointments for acute, urgent care.

Like most GP practices across the country, we are very short staffed and therefore we are unable to accept new patients.  Please be assured we are doing our best to recruit both Doctors and Nurses to come and live in the South Taranaki area.  In the meantime, please be kind to our staff, we are doing the best we can in this current staffing crisis.

Are you a GP looking to live and work in New Zealand?  South Taranaki has so much to offer, regardless of age or gender.  Take a look at this powerpoint, you can’t help but fall in love with the region!  Mountainview Medical presentation January 2022.ppsx.pptx

We partner with Ka Ora Telecare to provide virtual after-hours GP services, as an extension of our regular medical centre team.
