We do not want language differences to be a barrier to your care

• Please let us know in advance if you will need an interpreter to help with your consultation

• We use a telephone interpreter service where this is required

• Making arrangements in advance with the service is preferable

• We can access interpreters for most languages

• This may be through  'Interpreting New Zealand'

• These services are confidential

Alternatively you are welcome to bring a family or friend to help with communication if this is your preference
