Supporting GP Registrars and International Medical Graduates on their pathway to Fellowship
Prema House Medical Centre is proud to support doctors undertaking training and Fellowship pathways through the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP).
We provide a rural general practice environment where GP Registrars can develop their clinical skills and experience as they work towards Fellowship of the RACGP and a career as a General Practitioner.
We also support International Medical Graduates (IMGs) undertaking RACGP pathways towards Fellowship, helping doctors build their experience within the Australian general practice system while continuing their professional development.
These doctors are qualified medical practitioners and are part of our clinical team. Patients may therefore be booked directly with a GP Registrar or an IMG doctor as part of their normal appointment.
All doctors work within their level of training, registration and experience, with appropriate supervision and support from experienced GPs.
By supporting both Australian-trained doctors and International Medical Graduates, Prema House Medical Centre is helping develop the next generation of General Practitioners and strengthen the rural healthcare workforce in Lismore and the wider Northern Rivers community.
