There's something special about providing obstetrics care in a remote community.

Here, you're not just another clinician moving through a system, you become part of the story of families, babies and community.

You'll work alongside a passionate multidisciplinary team supporting women and families through pregnancy, birth and postnatal care in a way that is culturally respectful, relationship-focused and genuinely valued by community.

This is an opportunity for a Rural Generalist with Obstetrics to join the Weipa medical team and enjoy a unique rural maternity service where your skills make a real and visible contribution every single day.
