Specialist Auckland Orthodontist
Specialist Orthodontist in Parnell, Central Auckland
Parnell Orthodontics is located at 32 Mahuhu Crescent, Quay Park, Parnell, on the Auckland CBD fringe near Spark Arena and the waterfront. The clinic is easily accessible from Parnell Rise, Newmarket, Remuera, the eastern suburbs, the city centre and the motorway network. Actual travel time varies with traffic and your starting point..
Why Parnell?
Parnell and Quay Park sit at the geographic crossroads of several of Auckland's most populated residential and professional suburbs. For patients from Remuera, Newmarket, Epsom, the CBD, Mission Bay, St Heliers, Kohimarama, and Meadowbank, Parnell is a short, direct journey. In many cases it would take under 15 minutes by car, outside peak hours.
For patients coming from the North Shore, Ponsonby, Grey Lynn, Herne Bay, West or South Auckland; the clinic is accessible via the motorway network. It is close to exits/entry for both 1 & 16, with street level parking on arrival.
The clinic's central location makes it practical for many of our patients combine their appointment with work, school drop-off, or errands.
Parking and transport
Street parking is available around the park and along Mahuhu Crescent near the Arena. For patients commuting by public transport, the clinic is a short walk from the Britomart transport hub, which connects bus, train, and ferry services from across the region. We are happy to advise on the best route or parking option for your specific starting point — just ask when you call to book.
What makes Parnell Orthodontics different from other Auckland orthodontic practices?
The most significant difference is Dr Adith himself. Parnell Orthodontics is a single-specialist practice where every patient is assessed and treated personally by Dr Adith from the first consultation.
You'd see the same specialist and his assistants at every visit, and that clinician is a PhD-qualified researcher who remains at the cutting edge of the field through active publication and international teaching.
The practice is also equipped with 3D technology that improves diagnostic accuracy and treatment precision.
Who does Parnell Orthodontics serve?
We see patients of all ages, from children presenting for early assessment through to adults seeking treatment for the first time or following relapse after earlier treatment. Our most common patient catchment includes Parnell, Newmarket, Remuera, Epsom, Mission Bay, St Heliers, Kohimarama, Meadowbank, St Johns, Greenlane, Ponsonby, Grey Lynn, Herne Bay, the Auckland CBD, and patients travelling from the North Shore, East Auckland, and South Auckland. No referral is required to book.
