You'll receive a far more personal service from us, here in Oxford.
You're not a number. You're our neighbour, our friend, our valued community.
Our purpose is to ensure that Oxford is living healthy & well. A reflection of our commitment is that we are the only General Practice that provides the Waimakariri District with PRIME responders & 24-hour care, seven days a week. This dedication to our community doesn't come cheap & we don't receive funding for it. Please show us your support by enrolling today.
(we are currently only accepting enrolments from patients living within the boundaries of the Oxford-Ohoka Ward to Downs Road)
Please be aware you will need to wait 5 - 7 days after returning your completed enrolment before being able to make an appointment at the practice; this allows us time to receive your medical information from your previous practice. This is important so our clinicians have all the relevant information about your health needs and care.
