A Patient Base That Values Patient Continuity and Care

With a patient demographic that is predominantly older, they want to go to see a GP that takes the time to discuss their concerns, receive appropriate examinations and develop an ongoing relationship with their GP.

You’ll have an existing patient base to step into rather than relying entirely on new patient growth. There is an overflow of patients that the current GPs cannot handle.

Support And Facilities

You’ll work in a state-of-the-art clinic within a shopping centre, with internal access to the pharmacy next door and on-site allied health services. There are two nurses onsite each day, alongside established administrative support and a Practice Manager.

The billing model is mixed. Consultations, health assessments and care plans are bulk billed, while procedures such as iron infusions, laceration repairs, biopsies and skin excisions attract a patient gap in addition to the Medicare rebate.

What You Need

Specialist Registration with AHPRA

Fellowship with RACGP / ACRRM

A GP looking for a long-term position and prepared to build an ongoing patient base.

Comfortable with 15-minute consultations and a relationship-focused approach to general practice.

A genuine interest in continuity of care and getting to know your patients.
