Victoria Park Medical Suites is located at the junction of Victoria, Wellesley, Drake and Vernon streets adjacent to Victoria Park. The suites can be seen from the Victoria Street entrance to the park. We are within easy walking distance from Queen Street with good public transport coverage. We are also within easy walking distance of the new Wynyard Quarter and the Viaduct, as well as Ponsonby, Herne Bay, St Mary’s Bay and Freemans Bay.
We are an established GP practice inside an architecturally-designed clinic in the exciting Auckland CBD area. The two principal GPs are vocationally trained RNZCGP College Fellows who are passionate about delivering clinically up-to-date primary care services to patients in a modern and well-equipped facility. We believe having staff feeling valued and supported as well as having fun at work is important for building a successful practice.
Victoria Park was opened in 1905 to provide breathing space for urban dwellers and to encourage healthy living. Already, at that time, the potential detrimental effect of city living on health was recognised by the city fathers as was the need to provide amenities such as Victoria Park to counter this.
When the reclamation of land in Freemans Bay began, it was moved by the then mayor of Auckland, JJ Holland, that it was “necessary and expedient for public health and recreation that Freemans Bay, or 20 acres of it, be obtained as a reserve for the public". Excerpt from Urban Village by Jenny Carlyon and Diana Morrow.
In keeping with the spirit of our predecessors, Victoria Park Medical Suites aims to not only provide excellent medical care at a reasonable cost but also to promote healthy living and the prevention of illness.
