Role The practice is seeking a flexible and easy-going GP who enjoys a good work-life balance but is also passionate about their work and prepared to go the extra mile for their patients. This is a family and team-oriented practice with excellent staff and friendly and appreciative patients. A female GP is preferred to have a balanced practice. The role includes working 6 – 10 sessions per week with on-call and PRIME required. (PRIME training can be provided)
Practice You will be joining a friendly practice, working alongside the GP owner who offers great support and supervision if required. The closest base-hospital is Dunedin, about 200 kilometres (two and a half hours) away from the practice. The local hospital is Dunstan Hospital in Clyde, about seven kilometres (ten minutes) from the practice.
