Book with our Nurse Practitioner Intern

Our Nurse Prescriber, Renee McPhail, is currently completing her Nurse Practitioner (NP) internship year. Mātanga Tapuhi (Nurse Practitioners) are highly skilled, autonomous health professionals with advanced education and clinical training, and have legal authority to practise beyond the level of a registered nurse. In primary care, they may act as a lead healthcare provider in a role similar to a GP.

As an NP Intern, Renee sees patients of all ages for the full range of health concerns presenting in general practice. She can assess and diagnose conditions, order and interpret tests, prescribe medicines, arrange specialist or hospital referrals when required, and manage comprehensive treatment plans. Renee works under the supervision of Dr Javier Stroud and as part of the Courtenay Medical team to provide safe, coordinated, and patient-centred care.

You can book an appointment with Renee for the same types of concerns you would usually see a GP for, including new illnesses, ongoing conditions, and preventative healthcare.

Extended Prescriptions

From 1 February 2026, some people with stable long-term conditions who take regular medications may be eligible for an extended prescription, lasting up to 12 months for certain medicines.

Extended prescriptions will not be suitable for everyone. Your prescriber will use their clinical judgement to decide what is safe and appropriate for you as an individual.

If you are eligible, you will need to have an in-person review of your condition and medications with your prescriber before an extended prescription can be issued. This review will also include some virtual pre-work. Depending on what is required, there may be an additional cost associated with this review.

Please note:

Pharmacies can dispense a maximum of 3 months’ supply at a time (or 6 months for oral contraceptives), with repeats.

Extended prescription repeats must be collected from the same pharmacy each time.

There is no change to prescription lengths for controlled drugs, including ADHD stimulants, opioids, and sedatives/hypnotics.

If you have questions about whether an extended prescription may be suitable for you, please speak with your prescriber.

Masks

We do ask that you wear a mask in the waiting room if you are unwell with respiratory symptoms such as cough, runny nose, sore throat etc. Masks reduce the risk of transmission and reduce the risk of catching an infection. In a medical centre there is is a higher risk for other people who may be vulnerable and an increased risk of infectious people coming in. Wearing a mask also protects you and our staff.
