Locum GPs With Medical Cannabis Interest - Wollongong, NSW (Telehealth Opportunities)
Prescript has an exciting position for GPs (including trainees) with a special interest in Medical Cannabis consultations. There are two positions currently available, either as a locum or permanent employee, with the flexibility to provide services remotely via telehealth or on a part-time basis.
With the rising demand for medical cannabis services, this is an excellent opportunity to apply your experience or grow your patient base at a well-supported, modern metropolitan practice.
The Position
This reputable mixed-billings practice in Wollongong, NSW is in a high growth stage. You would be working with two other GP Supervisors completing both general practice and medical cannabis consultations. This role is highly flexible, as the practice is open 7 days per week – so after-hours, part-time availability, and remote telehealth coverage is welcomed. DPA-restricted doctors and GP registrars are also encouraged to apply.
For GPs with approved prescriber credentials, ongoing part-time telehealth arrangements can be made to allow you to grow your patient base in this specialist field from the comfort of home. Ideally, doctors will be able to provide some on-site coverage (1 day per week) with the ability to work from home around this.

About Max Drakeley
I’m Max Drakeley - Prescript's Senior Recruitment Partner for locum and permanent Specialist Doctor positions across Australia. My genuine interest, passion, and knowledge within the hospital and healthcare industry means I am able to provide a highly tailored service to doctors and health services.
I focus on listening to and understanding the needs of everyone I work with. This allows me to place doctors in positions that perfectly suit their requirements, and provide health services with well-informed and competent doctors, so they can operate at a higher capacity and under less stress.
When not providing solutions to doctors and communities Australia-wide, I love to cook, travel, and spend time with my dog, Monty, and my partner at my home on the Mornington Peninsula, Victoria. I’m a science nerd at heart and spend my spare time as an editor and author for a cutting-edge Biology magazine for year-12 and undergraduate students.
