General Practitioner

Make a Real Impact in Remote Healthcare – GP Role in the Pilbara Are you ready to take your general practice career to new heights—literally and figuratively? Your Week at a Glance 3 days of outreach clinics each week—travel by plane twice and 4WD once for a truly adventurous workweek. Clinic days are usually about 7am‑4.30pm. Fly for about an hour out to clinic and see patients from 08.30am‑2.30pm and head for home again. Monday admin time with flexibility—structure your week to suit your lifestyle, including the option of a 4‑day weekend every second week. Permanent 0.8 FTE (Mon‑Thu) based in Port Hedland, with FIFO job‑share options available. Live Comfortably, Work Remotely Enjoy the best of both worlds: live in a well‑appointed home in Port Hedland while making a difference in remote communities. Experience the satisfaction of building strong relationships and improving health outcomes in small, close‑knit populations. Why This Role Stands Out A rare chance to combine clinical excellence with adventure, purpose, and community impact. A truly unique role where you will enjoy clinical work variety, and the challenges and logistics of remote work. Be part of a supportive, mission‑driven team that values your expertise and flexibility. Work independently as a GP, with the support of the wider RFDS team.
