"We are very pleased oVRcome approached us to pilot the Distraction app.
 

My patients feel relaxed and less anxious before and during some procedures like injections or minor surgeries. 
 

This is a great example of how Virtual reality intersects with medicine and we are pleased to be the first clinic in New Zealand to embrace this technology in General Practice."
