We arrive in 5 days. :) We are going to be in Tauranga and were wondering if anyone of you could recommend a good Dentist and Doctor. We want to get all this sorted as soon as possible. Thank you. :nice1

There's an Accident & Healthcare centre on Second Avenue off Cameron Street, we've registered there for the time being as we don't know exactly where we are going to end up. basically it's a walk in place where you can see a GP, think we waited about 10 minutes. It's slightly more expensive than some I think, but we've found it convienient.
Can't really comment on how 'good' it is as we've only had a couple of visits.
First appt was $55 , follow up $45 which included blood tests & ECG & Xrays to follow, all of which don't get charged. Prescription was $3

A friend of mine is a GP in Tauranga, at this practice: http://www.fifthavenue.co.nz/index.html

He's never "doctored" me, but he is very nice :D

We use 'CentralMed' - corner of Devonport and 14th Ave - Dr Colin Helm (Scottish).

City Dental - 14 Cameron Road - state of the art equipment and an excellent hygienist - Lisa (Canadian) - prices same as anywhere I expect.

We use that practice although not that doctor (we see Sandie Moss) but we are really happy so far.

We use Otumoetai Doctors - Marty Lemberg. Nice guy really like him.

Go to Dental Solutions for myself and oldest daughter. Other daughter goes to Elizabeth Street Dental Centre as they do school age.
