The opportunity

Our client, a privately owned family practice, is looking for a locum GP to cover various blocks from October to December 2021. The locum will work from Monday to Friday, 0800AM to 0500PM with no on call, after hours or weekend work. This is a well-supported practice with nurses, GPs, a practice manager and a range of allied health visits such as podiatrists, dietician, audiologist and optometrist. The clinic uses Best Practice software and is largely bulk billed due to around 65% of presentations being in those over 70 and 10% being indigenous health. Standard appointment times are 15 minutes but can be longer if required.

The location

Located in a friendly rural town, the facility is very accessible. It is near the jetty, coffee shops, restaurants and cafes. The town is two hours south of Cairns and 2 hours north of Townsville. You can do a lot of exciting activities while in town, such as as visiting parks and waterfalls, exploring the rainforests and enjoy a fun hiking trail.

Essential Criteria

To be eligible for the role, you must have a specialist registration with AHPRA and fellowship with RACGP.

This is an amazing opportunity to work in a tropical rural location!
