Our team delivers comprehensive and coordinated health care, guided by values of continuity, integrity, healthy choices and excellence.
Our practice nurtures an enjoyable, sustainable and collaborative working environment, focused on personal and professional development
At Tallowwood Health we are passionate about excellence in healthcare. Our team’s goal is to provide high quality services to the GPs working here, and contribute to the improvement the health both of their patients, and also our community as a whole. Our passion is built upon a history of commitment to our community and continuity of care to our patients. And when we say continuity we mean it! Our practice has been locally owned and operated by local GPs since 1892, when it was founded by generalist Dr. Austin Cooper. Throughout its 129-year history it has continued to be a pioneer in regional primary care and chronic disease management. The practice enjoys a vision focused leadership team and continues to be 100% General Practitioner owned and operated.
Throughout its 127-year history, the practice has adapted to serve the changing needs of health professionals and the community, and has adapted to use advances in technology in how care can be delivered. The practice has a proud heritage of pioneering services, such as diabetes clinics, which consistently demonstrate positive results for patients. Tallowwood Health’s focus on continuity of care, integrity, healthy choices, and excellence has remained steady.
The Practice
- GPs enjoy supported clinical autonomy – we provide GPs wanting to operate from our site high quality support services and established systems through the work of skilled nursing and administrations staff.
- On site engaged leadership – vision orientated – Tallowwood Health is a service provider for GPs, which is owned and operated by GPs.
- Good communication – approachable staff, regular clinical meetings, scheduled open “catch-ups”, and cloud based electronic communication.
- Team orientated – ongoing investment in team development including work with HumanApp in 2020.
- Established chronic disease management programs.
- Goldilocks size – 8 GPs, 2 Registrars, 6 RNs, & 8 Admin
- Located in the medical precinct – central to specialist rooms and public & private hospitals
- Predominantly private billing.
- Even On-call and registrar / medical student teaching.
- At present, most GPs working from Tallowwood Health are not accepting new patients, reflecting the current demand for GP services.
We hope to work with vocationally registered GPs who hold fellowship through the RACGP or ACRRM, have unrestricted registration with AHPRA, and are enthusiastic about our goals and values. Options for part-time and full-time positions.
