Additional Services at QMC
Maternity-Related Care
QMC can offer funded appointments for pregnant and new mums in the following circumstances only:
- You are in your first trimester requiring a medical consultation regarding your pregnancy or for a condition of yourself (mother) or your baby that a clinician has determined will significantly impact on your pregnancy or its outcome
- Or you are in your second or third trimester and your maternity/pregnancy related medical need is not something that can be handled by your midwife or LMC
- You are up to six weeks’ postpartum and either you or your baby needs a maternity-related medical consultation.
In all other circumstances, our standard consult fees will apply.
Osteoporosis Screening
Some risk factors of osteoporosis include being female, menopause, Caucasian or Asian heritage, being underweight or small framed, maternal history of osteoporosis or having a fracture after the age of 40, male over the age of 70 and gut malabsorption conditions (Crohn’s or Coeliac).
We recommend all females from age 50 (or around menopause) and males from age 70 have a bone density scan. This scan is now done at Form Imaging, 5 Mile in Frankton.
If you are interested in having a bone density scan please contact https://formimaging.co.nz/ to make an appointment and then email clinical.admin@qmc.co.nz so they can arrange a referral for you. The pricing for the test is on the Form Imaging website.

Smoking Cessation
To help you “Quit”, we have several nurses at QMC who are all trained to help you quit smoking and are approved to offer NRT (nicotine replacement therapy) exchange cards.
Spirometry Testing
This test measures how much air you can breathe in and out of your lungs, as well as how easily and fast you can the blow the air out of your lungs.
Our nurses are trained in spirometry testing. Our spirometry machine is located at our Isle Street Centre. Please enquire with your team Nurse if you wish to undergo a spirometry test.
Health Improvement Practitioner and Health Improvement Coach
QMC is able to offer you, as an enrolled patient, free access to both a HIP (Health Improvement Practitioner) and a HIC (Health Improvement Coach).
The HIP and the HIC are slightly different but do work closely together in supporting you with a range of health and wellbeing needs.
This may be:
- Brief intervention to facilitate behaviour change
- Self-management of your own health and wellbeing
- Any behavioural or lifestyle concerns that impacts your wellbeing
Injection & Infusions
B12 Injection
Our nurses are trained to administer B12 injections. You must attend your appointment with your B12 in hand. Please enquire with your team nurse for further information.
Aclasta Infusion
A convenient once yearly treatment for osteoporosis, aclasta is an intravenous infusion which takes approximately half an hour to administer. Blood tests and a prescription are necessary prior to the infusion so please make an appointment with a doctor to discuss this.
Vitamin C Infusion
There is a growing amount of research on the benefits of Vitamin C infusions. The studies show benefits in burns patients, enhanced recovery from a range of infections, and pre- and post-surgery, and improved quality of life in cancer patients. Our digestive system limits how much vitamin C we can absorb and when we are unwell our bodies need to replace the vitamin C that had been utilised to fight the illness or infection. High doses of vitamin C treatment are extremely safe and well tolerated. Please enquire with your team nurse for further information.
