Description

Welcome to White Cross New Brighton!  (previously known as New Brighton Health Care).

We’ve been caring for our community for more than 45 years, and we’re proud to still be here for you and your whānau — now as White Cross New Brighton. Many of you have been with us for generations, and we’re truly grateful for the trust you’ve placed in us over the years.

Our care goes beyond treating today’s symptoms. With a focus on holistic wellness and prevention, we’re here to help shape better health for tomorrow.

You’ll find a friendly and dedicated team of GPs, nurses, a nurse practitioner, and support staff ready to listen, support, and guide you through whatever health challenges life brings. From everyday check-ups to managing long-term conditions, our goal is to make sure you always feel cared for and understood.

We’re also well connected with local pharmacies, physios, and labs, making it easier for you to get the extra care and support you need, right here in the community.

We’re not just your healthcare team — we’re your neighbours. You’ll see us at the shops, at the beach, and around the neighbourhood. And like any good neighbour, we’re here whenever you need us.

New name, same great team

You'll find the same trusted healthcare team in the clinic that you know and rely on, and now, as part of a well-established nationwide network. You'll also benefit from access to industry-leading healthcare innovations and enhanced care, including:

  • Increased access to healthcare, with 24/7 online GP care through Bettr.co.nz – online GP consultations are $45 for an enrolled adult (or $25 with a CSC), and free for enrolled patients under 14yrs. With extended hours and same-day appointments typically available on Bettr, you’re never far from the care you need. 
  • Seamless, connected care – if you choose to see us in the clinic, use Bettr online care, or one of our other White Cross services, with your agreement the clinical staff may access your health record, to enable continuity of care and a personalised experience. 
  • Improved convenience and transparency - our online patient portal Manage My Health allows you to check your lab results, view your health and immunisation records, request repeat scripts, and book appointments online – all from the comfort of your home, work or wherever. Signing up is easy 

Thank you once again for joining us on this next exciting chapter. If you have any questions or would like more information, please email
