Why Queenstown?
Set against a dramatic "moonscape" of rugged hills and rich mining history, Queenstown is one of Tasmania’s most distinctive towns. It’s a place where you can slow down, stretch out, and connect — to nature, to your patients, and to your work.
- Population ~1,800 – friendly, welcoming, and community-minded
- 40 minutes to Strahan – for cruises, wilderness rail, and coastline adventures
- Surrounded by fishing lakes, rainforests, and the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area
- An off-the-beaten-path lifestyle that’s full of natural beauty and old-world charm
You’ll need:
- Fellowship with RACGP or ACRRM
- Specialist Registration with AHPRA
- ALS2 / REST or equivalent Emergency Medicine certificate
- Prior experience in GP and emergency settings
