Remember Monty?
Back in December 2024, we posted about Monty needing a repot after our reduced-to-clear monstera had grown dramatically.
We can't help but notice that Monty has truly flourished and become quite the talking point in the waiting room.
Today's photo not only captures that amazing sunshine, but also Monty's growth — continuing to live his best life. ... See MoreSee Less

Such a glow-up, go Monty! 🪴
Way to grow Monti! 😃
Monty is glorious!
What an incredible evening!
A huge thank you to Dr Lena Clinckett for delivering such an informative and engaging presentation on menopause and perimenopause. It was wonderful to see so many people come together, ask thoughtful questions, and take the opportunity to learn more about an important topic that affects so many women and whānau.
Events like this are only possible through collaboration. Thank you to ConnectHER Aotearoa for bringing this evening together and coordinating everything behind the scenes. We would also like to thank Macdonald & Weston Funeral Home for their generous support, from providing the chairs and projector to the delicious snack board.
Finally, thank you to everyone who attended. The response to this event was incredible, and seeing the room full of people eager to learn was truly rewarding.
With so much interest, we're certainly hoping we can convince Dr Clinckett to present again in the future! ... See MoreSee Less

Kia ora
West Invercargill Health will be closed this Monday for ANZAC Day.
As we head into the cooler season, it’s a good chance to slow down a little and reflect on the meaning of the day—remembering the service and sacrifice of those who came before us. Whether you’re attending a dawn service or spending time with whānau, we hope you’re able to take a moment to pause.
If you need medical care while we’re closed, please refer to our pinned post for after-hours and urgent care options.
Enjoy your long weekend ❤️

Happy Easter from West Invercargill Health!
Our bunnies have been working hard and we reckon they’ve earned a chocolate egg or two!
From our burrow to your whānau, we hope your Easter is full of good company, a bit of rest, and maybe a sneaky treat (or three).
A wee note from the burrow—after Easter, Dr Derek will be moving to a 4-day working week (Tuesday to Friday), while the rest of the team will still be here keeping things ticking along as usual.
We’ll be closing up the burrow at 5pm Thursday 2nd April and popping back open at 8.30am Wednesday 8th April. If you need medical assistance while we’re away, check out our pinned post for after-hours services.
Stay safe, enjoy the long weekend, and don’t eat all your chocolate in one go! ... See MoreSee Less
