Recent Testimonials
'I enjoyed the wide varitey of everyday general practice problems as well as the exposure and experience of procedural work at the hospital.'

'My time in general practice was highly memorable and educational, as it allowed me to practice and improve my history-taking, examination, diagnostic and presentation skills. I am indebted to AOGP and to the GPs at Health at Newton & Campbelltown, as they provided me with much support, valuable feedback and encouragement. I would recommend this very organised term to those wanting to pursue general practice as well as those who plan to specialise in other areas, as it provides a great opportunity to see a wide range of conditions and it reveals the challenges faced by GPs in an urban setting.'

'As an overseas trained doctor, I found the GP placement very useful.
In this rotation I learnt more about the the primary health care system in Australia and the role of GPs in district hospitals.This will help me work more effectively in secondary and tertiary hospitals in the future as we are always in contact with GPs, either for referrals or for follow ups and having a good understanding of each others roles will defintaely improve the care we can provide to our patients.'
