Welcome to Fifth Avenue Family Practice, where we prioritise the health and well-being of women in our community.
Birth Control
Long Acting Reversible Contraception (LARC). LARC methods such as the IUD and implant are highly effective forms of birth control that can last for several years. Our experienced physicians will explain the options available to you and help you choose the best method for your individual needs.
Pregnancy
Pregnancy is a special time for women, and our practice is here to provide you with the care and support you need. We will help you understand your options, and provide you with the necessary information to make an informed decision about your pregnancy.
We offer Hapū Māmā appointments with an experienced physician who will incorporate the cultural beliefs and values of you and your whānau which can help you feel safe and make it more likely you will experience a satisfying birth outcome.
