Information for new patients
Location & parking
The clinic is located at the top of Thackeray Street, just above Anglesea Clinic Urgent Care and just down the road from Waikato Hospital.
On-site parking is available behind the building via the driveway. Disabled parking is available at the front entrance.
Referrals & booking
All new patients first need a referral from their GP, which is sent directly to the practice. This gives the surgeon context for your condition so he can prepare the best course of treatment.
In some cases this may result in you being referred to another ENT specialist who is better placed to provide optimal treatment for your condition.
This process can take up to two weeks following your GP visit. If you have not heard from us within two weeks, please email us at info@johnclarkson.co.nz.
Insurance
We are a Southern Cross Health Insurance Affiliated Provider, NIB Health Partner, and are supported by all major health insurance companies. For questions about cover for your consultation or procedure, contact your insurer or email our clinic.
CT scans
Some cases require a CT scan before your first appointment. This is determined during the referral screening. If this applies to you, our reception team will be in touch and send a referral to I-MED Radiology. Your booking will need to be confirmed before your consultation.
Follow-up appointments
Follow-ups are booked alongside your surgery and held at the clinic. If you are unsure whether one has been scheduled, please email us. Medical certificates for school or work can also be requested by email.
