At Prescript, we place doctors where
they’re needed most — and where they’ll thrive. This is one of those opportunities: a
rewarding locum role in the heart of South Australia’s Eyre Peninsula, where
your clinical skills will be valued, your contribution will be visible, and your
downtime will be spent by the sea. Port Lincoln Hospital is well-organised
and well-supported, and you’ll be backed by a Consultant Physician and a
friendly, capable clinical team. We’ll take care of all the logistics — so you
can focus on delivering great care and enjoying everything this unique coastal
community has to offer. The Position
We’re seeking a GP or Rural Generalist (FACRRM or FRACGP) to support general medicine wards at Port Lincoln Hospital.

views from a local café.
