Accident & Urgent Medical Care (A&E) Service

Today

8:00 AM to 8:00 PM.

Description

Access to WAM is available to everyone, yet we encourage Whanganui locals who are registered with a general practice to contact them in the first instance.  WAM is a non-profit organisation whose primary purpose is to ensure that you can access the care should you:

  • Injure yourself
  • Need to be seen urgently; or
  • Require medical assistance on the weekends or in the evening when your general practice is closed.

As an urgent care clinic, WAM differs from general practice in that it does not enrol patients or receive funding to provide the same range of services that patients receive at their general practice. If you are enrolled with a General Practitioner, we encourage you to seek non-urgent medical attention with them.
