Kia ora koutou,
We hope you had a safe, healthy and happy Christmas break and are enjoying the warmer settled weather that has arrived. It’s shaping up to be a great year and we have some exciting updates at Health New Lynn to share with you.

Staff update
We are excited to welcome our new Clinical Manager, Yasha Chepuri, who joined us earlier this month. Yasha is a qualified dentist with more than 10 years’ experience, and relocated to Auckland from India in 2020. We are excited to welcome Yasha to the team!
We also bid farewell to Dr Mark Young, who is finishing up on 31 January. Dr Mark has purchased his own practice and while we are sad to see him go, we wish him all the best on his future endeavours. A huge thank you to Dr Mark for all the time, care and support he has given to our patients and the Health New Lynn community.
If Dr Mark has been your regular doctor, please give our reception team a call on 09 827 8888 or speak to us in person next time you visit, and we’ll be more than happy to help you transfer to one of our other great doctors in our team.

Fees update
Pre-payments for appointments will now be required when you arrive, and can be paid at reception. It is important that payments and invoices are kept up to date, as this helps our team limit lost time on administration tasks and enables us to dedicate more time to helping our patients. If you would like to discuss payment of your outstanding invoices, please call reception on 09 827 8888.
Immunisation records for your children
With the new school year quickly approaching, some schools may require a copy of your child’s immunisation records. If this is you, please email welcome@healthnewlynn.co.nz with your child’s details and what records you require. Please note that there will be a $10.00 administration fee for providing these records, and it may take up to 48 hours to return these records to you.
Our team is getting a new look
We are excited to share that our team will be updating their staff uniforms in the coming weeks, so that they are more easily recognisable for you when visiting Health New Lynn. Keep an eye out for these next time you visit!
