Job description

No appointment book

400 to 500 patients walk through the door every day, and most are seen within 20 to 30 minutes, so the waiting room stays full from open to close. A busy nurse led treatment room handles dressings, wound care, immunisations and travel vaccines, feeding you a steady stream of quick consults.

Your Days, Your Call

Any weekdays you want, plus Saturdays if you choose, and you can trial a Saturday session first to test your billings. With no appointment book, a late start or a day off leaves no backlog, so even a short week runs full.

• 100% Fully Bulk Billed
• Walk in Model only - No pressure for appointments
• M-F earn 70% Split
• Saturdays higher at 75%

Company, Culture and Site

Single site, GP owned and non corporate. The principal is a former director of emergency who has run bulk billing general practice since 1994, built his first clinic to 32 GPs before selling, and opened here 13 years ago. He is genuine, down to earth and easy to talk to, and both owners consult onsite, stepping in whenever the waiting room fills. The practice manager is a registered nurse who has worked alongside him for 30 years and handles patient complaints before they reach the GPs. GPs set their own mix, from fully walk in to a handful of booked patients, which is why turnover is low.

20 rooms across 3 levels, 12 nurses with 3 on every day, a dedicated treatment and procedure room, and 5 full time receptionists on every day. Pathology, pharmacy and podiatry onsite, plus a visiting cardiologist. The train station is 50m away, with paid parking across the road at around $15 a day. Demand is already here, there’s no ramp-up.
