The Role

A Consultant Physician is needed to join this close-knit team at a regional teaching hospital which has relationships with both La Trobe and Monash universities.

Your new home town is a pleasant oasis sitting near the borders of VIC, NSW and SA. It’s a modern city with an interesting history. There are plenty of beautiful art deco buildings on show, not to mention some of the best dining in regional Victoria.

Only a short drive from the city there are national parks to explore and the great Murray River provides endless activities for you and the family. Picture yourself fishing, swimming, taking a houseboat away for the weekend or perhaps just enjoying a game of golf with river views.
