The Opportunity
We are working closely with one of Australia’s largest regional health services and are keen to connect with FRACP Geriatricians interested in a full-time role within a mature and well-established Geriatric Medicine department.
The service supports a large and ageing regional population and operates across acute geriatric consults, GEM/subacute inpatient units and rehabilitation-linked models of care. The role offers meaningful involvement in orthogeriatrics, frailty pathways and multidisciplinary service development.
This position will appeal to Geriatricians seeking scale, structure and long-term professional stability within a major regional centre.

The Geriatric Medicine service includes:
  • Acute geriatric consult service
  • Established GEM / subacute inpatient units
  • Orthogeriatrics collaboration
  • Stroke and rehabilitation interface
  • Strong Emergency Department and ICU integration
  • Teaching and registrar supervision

The hospital maintains a structured consultant-led model and supports physician training within a comprehensive referral environment.

Why Consider This Role
  • 650+ bed regional referral centre
  • Established acute and subacute geriatrics
  • Orthogeriatrics and stroke collaboration
  • Large and diverse catchment
  • Teaching hospital environment
  • Substantially comparable pathway supported
  • Less than 2 hours to Melbourne

For interstate or international applicants, the RACP assessment and registration pathway can be clearly structured to ensure transparency and progression alignment.

The Location
Located in a well-developed regional city in Victoria, the area offers strong schooling, cultural amenities and a vibrant food and wine scene. Consultants benefit from regional living with direct access to Melbourne.
