We can help you 

Do you live in Northland and have a respiratory condition? We can help you with information and support.

We would love for you to make an appointment to visit our Whangarei or Kaikohe office.

Our office is open between 9am and 2.30pm every day. If you have breathing problems call in or make an appointment with one of our Specialised Respiratory Nurses to run simple tests with you to ascertain whether you have asthma or COPD. If it appears you need medication, these tests will be referred to your doctor to assist with having the right medication prescribed for you. These tests are very low cost, but effective.

Join our Huffers and Puffers Group which meets weekly for people with COPD, asthma or heart conditions, who have low level exercise ability. The group is run by a physiotherapist and participants are monitored by our medical outreach team and Northland Asthma Society nurses. The group meets from 2 to 3pm every Thursday at the Kensington Fitness Centre in Western Hill Drive, Whangarei.

Meet our friendly staff:

Janice Martin , Office Administrator
