GP Practice | Gore Health Centre

Gore Health Centre is the GP Practice within Gore Health Ltd. We are located in the Hospital building on Birch Lane.

Our practice manager, Christine Miller, has been with Gore Health Centre since 2021. Chris moved to Southland 11 years ago from the Eastern Bay of Plenty and says Gore is a wonderful town, a hidden gem “with everything we need”.

She has an adult daughter and a wee dog named Mindy and is a real home-body who enjoys pottering around and being out in the garden.

Chris loves that the staff at Gore Health strive to give their patients the best possible healthcare, all the while looking out for each other.

Our permanent team are passionate about creating relationships that help to improve the health and wellbeing of people in our community.

The Gore Health Centre GP practice is open Monday to Friday 8.00 am to 5.00 pm with evening clinics on Monday and Thursdays from from 5:00 pm to 8.00pm.
