Waihi Beach may get a new $2.6million medical hub.
The plan involves a larger medical centre and an ambulance station combined to replace the medical centre in Wilson Rd, to cope with increasing demand for services and a growing population.
It would be able to support about 3000 enrolled patients.
"The new clinic will almost be three times larger and will include a primary care medical centre as well as a St John facility and the proposed location is behind the community hall," said Craig McFarlane, Waihi Beach Medical Centre Charitable Trust chairman.
Waihi Beach Community Board chairman Allan Sole said it was still only a proposal.
