Make a Real Impact in Remote Healthcare

Are you ready to take your general practice career to new heights—literally and figuratively?

We’re offering a unique and deeply rewarding opportunity for a passionate GP to join our team delivering essential healthcare services to remote Pilbara communities through the Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS) clinics.



💼 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.
- Casual role with a variety of shifts and locations available


🏡 Live Comfortably, Work Remotely

- Enjoy the best of both worlds: live in a well-appointed home located near our local bases while making a difference in remote communities.
- Experience the satisfaction of building strong relationships and improving health outcomes in small, close-knit populations.


🩺 Who We’re Looking For

We’re seeking a GP who brings both clinical excellence and a passion for remote healthcare:

- FRACGP or FACRRM
- Unconditional AHPRA Specialist GP registration
- Minimum 5 years post-graduate experience, including general practice, emergency medicine, paediatrics, obstetrics, and gynaecology
- Interest in clinical education and telehealth
- Experience in Indigenous health, remote community care, and shared antenatal care is highly desirable
- Completion of emergency courses such as ALS is advantageous


💼 Total Remuneration Package

- Salary packaging: up to $15,900/year for everyday expenses + $2,650/year for meals and entertainment
- Housing, vehicle, and utilities provided while on site 
- No out of hours on call
- Professional development allowance (included in base salary above)
