General Practitioner Registrars

If you’ve noticed doctors coming and going at Durrant Medical Clinic, do not worry as this is part of the process of training Specialist General Practitioners. We are proud to have welcomed and farewelled dozens of dynamic, caring doctors over the years from our GP Registrar program (Royal Australian College of General Practitioners).

A GP Registrar is a fully qualified medical doctor, undertaking advanced training to specialise in General Practice. The Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (R.A.C.G.P) requires aspiring General Practitioners to complete an advanced GP training program. This specialist program will take a doctor at least two years to complete and attend placements between two to four different medical practices. Durrant Medical Clinic offers 6 - 12 month placements to our Registrars. Here, they receive a great opportunity to work in a busy, yet supportive environment that focuses on family medicine and community health. Not to mention we have wonderful patients.

Being qualified medical doctors, GP Registrars are knowledgeable and skilled. At Durrant Medical Clinic they can tap into decades of experience and insight from our team. After their time with us, Registrars generally move on to their next placement. Once they complete their final exams they are fully qualified specialist General Practitioners.
