Emergency warning: In New Zealand, call 111 for life-threatening symptoms or ambulance, police or fire emergency help. For free non-emergency health advice when you are worried or unsure, call Healthline 0800 611 116.

First-screen patient routing

What should you do first for Travis Medical Centre?

Most users searching for a GP clinic want a next step, not a long brochure. Use this route first so you do not waste time on the wrong option.

Severe or life-threatening symptoms

Call 111. Do not wait for email, MyIndici, online booking, a call back or routine opening hours.

Need help today while open

Phone (03) 388 9686. Explain timing, severity and whether symptoms are worsening.

Clinic closed but not an emergency

Use Healthline, Practice Plus for suitable virtual GP care, or Pegasus 24 Hour Surgery for urgent face-to-face care.

Routine appointment or repeat prescription

Use MyIndici if registered and suitable, or phone reception. Repeat prescriptions need planning and GP/NP discretion.

Appointment clarity

How to book the right Travis Medical Centre appointment

Travis Medical Centre’s public website includes a direct booking link to MyIndici and says the older portal is no longer available. It asks patients to register on the MyIndici portal to access medical records, appointments and other services.

Booking the right appointment type matters. The fees page says standard consultations are 15 minutes and that longer consultations or additional services may incur extra charges. If you have more than one issue, a complex medicine review, paperwork, mental health support, procedure questions or a new-patient first visit, phone and ask whether more time is needed.

Check urgency first

Call 111 for emergency symptoms. Phone the clinic for same-day symptoms during opening hours. Use Healthline, Practice Plus or 24 Hour Surgery when the clinic is closed and the situation is not a 111 emergency.

Use MyIndici for suitable routine tasks

Use MyIndici for suitable registered patient tasks such as booking appointments, repeat prescriptions and viewing information. Phone if the issue is urgent, complex or unclear.

Ask if a longer appointment is needed

Standard consultations are short. If you have multiple concerns, forms, complex medicine questions or a detailed health review, ask reception whether extra time is needed.

Prepare before attending

Bring medicines, allergy details, Community Services Card if relevant, recent hospital letters, test information, forms, and the main question you need answered first.

Cancel early if you cannot attend

The terms of operation say missed appointments can incur a fee and appointments must be cancelled at least two hours before the appointment time to avoid a charge.

Patient portal

MyIndici, online appointments, repeat prescriptions and results

Travis Medical Centre’s booking page says the previous patient portal is no longer available and that the practice is transitioning to MyIndici for all patient services. The page asks patients to register on MyIndici to access medical records, appointments and other services.

The terms of operation say MyIndici access includes ordering repeat prescriptions, viewing test results, booking appointments and viewing notes. The patient-portal guidance also explains that routine repeat prescriptions should be ordered through the designated prescription section of the portal.

Good MyIndici uses

  • Routine appointment booking for registered patients.
  • Repeat prescription requests when clinically appropriate.
  • Viewing test results after the clinician signs them off.
  • Viewing upcoming appointments and selected health information.
  • Accessing notes where available through the patient app.

Phone instead when

  • You have urgent, same-day or worsening symptoms.
  • Your medicine changed or caused new symptoms.
  • You are not sure whether a result needs action.
  • You are not registered for MyIndici.
  • You have several issues and may need a longer appointment.
Repeat prescriptions

Repeat prescriptions, medication review and result follow-up

Travis Medical Centre’s fees page says repeat prescriptions are only available at the doctor’s discretion for stable medical conditions where medication has previously been prescribed by Travis Medical. It also says a consultation with the doctor is needed at least every six months to allow medication review.

The patient portal guidance says routine prescription requests should be made through the designated prescription section of the portal, and patients should allow 3 working days for the GP or nurse practitioner to complete the request. Usual charges apply.

Repeat request may suit

  • Stable medicine previously prescribed by Travis Medical.
  • Routine prescription request made early enough for 3 working days.
  • Patient is registered on MyIndici and uses the prescription section.
  • Medication has been reviewed within the required timeframe.

Phone or book instead when

  • Your medicine changed, stopped working or caused side effects.
  • You have not had the required medication review.
  • You are not known to the practice.
  • You need urgent supply and cannot wait for normal processing.
  • You are unsure whether a repeat is clinically appropriate.

Test results note

The patient portal guidance says results can be viewed once the clinician has signed them off. It also explains that some sensitive results may not be loaded before the GP or nurse practitioner talks to you. If symptoms are worsening or you do not understand a result, phone rather than waiting.

Cost clarity

Travis Medical Centre fees patients usually search for first

Fees can change, and your final cost may depend on age, enrolment, Community Services Card status, casual status, ACC status, materials, appointment length, nursing service, prescription timing or additional services. Confirm directly before booking or paying.

New patients

Enrolment, local-area rules and first-visit preparation

Travis Medical Centre’s enrolment page says it is currently enrolling patients who live locally to the practice and are not currently enrolled with another general practice within a 10km radius of Travis Medical Centre. Healthpoint also describes enrolment as restricted and says the practice accepts some new patients with restrictions.

The enrolment page says new patients need to complete an enrolment form with photographic ID, such as a passport or driver licence, and sign and return the terms of operation. It also says all new patients over 18 need to be seen by the nursing team before seeing their enrolled GP, with a 30-minute consultation listed at $30.

Before trying to enrol

  • Check whether you live locally to Travis Medical Centre.
  • Check whether you are already enrolled with another practice within 10km.
  • Prepare photographic ID such as passport or driver licence.
  • Prepare the enrolment form and terms of operation.
  • Ask whether enrolment has any current delay before acceptance.

First adult appointment rules

  • New patients over 18 need a nurse appointment before GP or nurse practitioner appointments.
  • The nurse appointment is listed as 30 minutes and $30.
  • Official pages mention processing time before being seen; confirm current timeframe directly.
  • Patients over 16 or 18 may be set up as their own account holder depending on the practice rule applied.
When closed

After-hours care, Practice Plus and Pegasus 24 Hour Surgery

Travis Medical Centre’s out-of-hours page says that if the medical centre is closed and the problem can wait, patients can book an appointment online through the website. If patients are not sure what to do, the page suggests calling Healthline on 0800 611 116.

The same page says that if you need to see a doctor today and it is not a medical emergency, you can use Practice Plus for a virtual doctor appointment. It also lists the 24 Hour Surgery at 401 Madras Street, open 24 hours a day every day, as a sit-and-wait service with phone 03 365 7777. For medical emergencies, it says to dial 111 for an ambulance or attend the Emergency Department at Christchurch public hospital if you can safely get there.

Call 111 immediately for emergencies

Use 111 for severe breathing difficulty, chest pain, collapse, stroke signs, major injury, severe allergic reaction, severe bleeding or any situation that feels life-threatening.

Call Healthline when worried or unsure

Use Healthline on 0800 611 116 for free non-emergency health advice, especially after hours, when you cannot access a GP or when you need advice about medicine.

Practice Plus for virtual GP care

May suit after-hours situations where a virtual GP appointment is clinically appropriate and it is not an emergency. Check fees, eligibility and availability before booking.

24 Hour Surgery for urgent face-to-face care

Use for urgent physical assessment when needed and it is not a 111 emergency. The Travis out-of-hours page lists 401 Madras Street and phone 03 365 7777.

Services and support

GP services and patient support at Travis Medical Centre

Travis Medical Centre’s public information lists family medicine, lifestyle and wellbeing support, social services, Health Improvement Practitioner support and health coaching. The booking page says there is no charge to see the social worker, Health Improvement Practitioner or Health Coach. Healthpoint also lists service areas such as cervical screening, immunisation, health screening, long-acting reversible contraception and general practice care.

Do not assume every service can be booked online or completed in one standard appointment. Some services may need a GP, nurse, nurse practitioner, health coach, HIP, social worker, procedure time, materials, preparation, referral, separate fee or follow-up.

Family medicine

Use routine GP or nurse practitioner appointments for general health care, follow-up, medicine review and family health needs.

Health coach and HIP support

The clinic lists wellbeing, nutrition, exercise and mental health support. Call reception or book online where suitable.

Social worker support

The clinic lists a social worker and says there is no charge to see this support person. Confirm booking availability with reception.

Cervical screening and LARC

Ask what clinician, appointment length, eligibility and fee applies before booking screening or contraception care.

Immunisation and child health

Bring vaccine records and ask whether GP, nurse or nurse practitioner appointment is appropriate.

Test results and portal

Results may appear after clinician sign-off. Phone if symptoms worsen or you do not understand the result.

Entity clarity

Travis Medical Centre vs physio, pharmacy, portal, Practice Plus and 24 Hour Surgery

A major reason medical pages bounce is entity confusion. Travis Medical Centre is a GP practice at 225 Travis Road in New Brighton, Christchurch. It is not automatically the same as every provider at the site, and it is not an emergency department.

A separate Habit Health listing refers to physiotherapy at Travis Medical Centre with its own contact details and opening hours. If your need is physiotherapy, pharmacy, lab, virtual GP after-hours care or urgent face-to-face care, the correct contact route may be different from Travis Medical Centre reception.

GP appointment

Use Travis Medical Centre phone or MyIndici if registered and the task is suitable.

Patient portal

Use MyIndici, not older portal names, for current online patient services.

Physio at the site

Physio services may have separate Habit Health contact details and hours.

Virtual after-hours GP

Practice Plus may help when virtual GP care is appropriate and it is not an emergency.

Urgent face-to-face care

24 Hour Surgery at 401 Madras Street is listed by Travis for urgent after-hours face-to-face care.

Emergency still means 111

Do not use email, MyIndici, pharmacy, physio or routine GP booking for emergency symptoms.

Location

Map, address and visiting preparation

Travis Medical Centre is listed at 225 Travis Road, New Brighton, Christchurch 8083. Use the map before travelling, especially if you are unfamiliar with New Brighton, Burwood, Parklands or the eastern Christchurch area, arriving near closing time, or helping a child or older family member.

Before calling or visiting

Patient checklist before you call, book or attend

A short preparation step can save a wasted appointment or repeat phone call. This is especially useful if you are enrolling, requesting repeat prescriptions, booking through MyIndici, asking about results, or choosing between GP, Practice Plus and 24 Hour Surgery.

  • Note when symptoms started and whether they are worsening.

  • Have your NHI number ready if available.

Before visiting

  • Confirm appointment time and whether extra time is needed.
  • Bring Community Services Card if relevant.
  • Bring medicine list, hospital letters, forms and recent result details.
  • Ask before travelling if you are arriving near closing time or a public holiday period.
  • Use 111, Healthline or urgent care if the situation worsens before the appointment.
