The Position

Tasmanian Family Medical and Southside Family Medical (Burnie) are seeking a full time General Practitioner with no restrictions to join them in their impressive renovated premises in Burnie, north-west Tasmania. Whilst providing the full suite of general practice services, this practice has a special focus on preventative health and mental health. Experience and an interest in treating mental health conditions is desirable although not essential.

And what a great location! The former Australian Pulp and Paper administrative building is a spacious heritage-listed Art Deco classic with uninterrupted views of the bay across the road. Not only that, but it shares a carpark with Bunnings, which provides excellent exposure and access.

With a population of around 20,000 and the administrative hub for Tasmania’s north-west coast, Burnie provides something for everyone.



Apart from offering mouth‑watering produce and an active arts community, it is within easy reach of magnificent Wilderness World Heritage Area parks and reserves, yet just an hour’s flight from Melbourne for that big city fix.
