Healthcare that connects
Tend Health is a proudly New Zealand-owned primary healthcare company, operating The Doctors and Tend medical centres with 24/7 online care across Aotearoa.
Our purpose is to help New Zealanders be the healthiest people in the world.
Together, we care for more than 550,000 enrolled patients, in person and online. The Doctors, part of Tend Health, brings a long history of caring for local communities. Through Tend, patients can also see a GP online 24/7. It’s care that fits around your life, not the other way around.
Our story
Tend started in 2020 with a simple belief: primary care should be easier to access and better connected than it is.
In August 2026, The Doctors joined us, adding 65 medical centres and a proud history of caring for communities up and down the country.
Many of the medical centres in our network have looked after their people for decades. What we add is the thread that ties it all together. That’s one platform for booking, consultations, test results, medications and your whānau’s health records, now rolling out across our network.
What makes us different
Our technology is developed in New Zealand, purpose-built for primary care and designed alongside the clinicians who use it. That means less friction for patients and more time for what matters: the conversation, the diagnosis and the follow-through.
Technology does the connecting so our teams can focus on the caring. This is what modern primary care looks like, and it's how we're helping build a healthcare system that can meet the needs of generations to come.
Care for everyone
We’re building care that is equitable, accessible and designed around the communities we serve. That commitment runs through our ownership too. Iwi investors are Tend Health’s largest shareholder group.
They include Ngāi Tahu Holdings, Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei, Nāti Growth (Ngāti Porou) and Ahuahu Group (Te Nehenehenui).
They’re intergenerational partners who want what we want: better health outcomes for whānau and healthcare that stays in New Zealand hands.
It's the care you need, when you need it.
