Guides and tools for GPs

Everything here is written to be useful whether or not you ever speak to us. Read what is relevant, ignore the rest.

Tools

Short, useful things you can do in a few minutes.

Answer a few questions and see which parts of Australia are likely to suit the life you want.

A guided set of questions that produces a personalised summary of your likely route to practising here.

Longer reads for when you want the detail.

What practices ask, what to ask them, and how to tell a good practice from a polished one.

Billings, service fees, patient mix and hours. Why there is no single national salary figure.

The practice types, billing models and locations that shape what a role is actually like.

For GPs who trained overseas.

Registration, timelines and what changes about the working week.

Recognition, visas and settling in.

The trans-Tasman arrangement and what tends to be different here.

How Ahpra, the RACGP and ACRRM fit together.

The common routes GPs use to work in Australia.

How distribution priority area rules affect where you can work.

Housing, schools, partner work and the practical side of the move.

Most GPs find one honest conversation more useful than a week of reading. There is no obligation either way.
