What I wish I’d known before applying to General Practice

Read our RLO (Phil Deacon's) blog:

Take a look at your pathway (rural or general) eligibility and the locations that interest you and suit your family/personal commitments as well as your future career goals. This is really important – it might mean travelling around to check out how far Wuddina or Mt Gambier etc are from your significant others.

Finally, take a deep breath. General Practice training is amazing. If you’re passionate and enthusiastic – as you clearly are to be reading GP application blogs! – then you’ll be fine.
