Not just a GP. Why GP is the greatest job in the world. David Chessor, Media Tart. 10 reasons why you won’t regret applying to be a GP! April 14, 2014. By Dr David Chessor. Applications for GP training opened this morning, and I couldn’t think of a better reason to breathe some life into my severely neglected blog, which is most of the time about how AWESOME it is to be a GP. I’ve written extensively. They might even outweigh you having to stare at my face. Too many times during the application process.

Not just a GP. Why GP is the greatest job in the world. David Chessor, Media Tart. Never trust a skinny chef, or a sick doctor? May 8, 2013. By Dr David Chessor. Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about the responsibility of doctors to act as leaders in their communities. Part of this inspired my last post – ‘Do you wish you were Dr Incognito? I’d like to follow on by reflecting on what kind of responsibility doctors have to act as role models for healthcare. Fan, and Maggie Beer. A dentist with awful teeth?

Juggling Jargon | Not just a GP
https://notjustagp.wordpress.com/2013/08/07/juggling-jargon
Not just a GP. Why GP is the greatest job in the world. David Chessor, Media Tart. August 7, 2013. By Dr David Chessor. When I started medical school, multiple people said to me that the medical jargon you need to learn during medical school is the equivalent of learning:-. A) a new language, or. B) seven thousand new words, or. C) other impressive feats of linguistic prowess. Deserves praise and admiration. (As long as you don’t require too much of an explanation). Or perhaps some kind of Kiwi medicine&...

Putting Down Roots | Nomadic GP
https://nomadicgp.wordpress.com/2014/09/08/putting-down-roots
Adventures of a Rural Locum. This entry was posted on September 8, 2014, in Life. After more than a year of stepping off aeroplanes and into unknown adventures, there is something nice about being met at the baggage carousel by a friendly face and a welcome home. Well, not technically home. But certainly starting to feel that way. Particularly awesome is how much easier working with the local hospital becomes when every phone call starts with Mate! We must catch up for a drink sometime. Happy for you ...

Adventures of a Rural Locum. This entry was posted on June 14, 2014, in Leisure. There are some times as a locum when I have to pinch myself and think “Really? Am I actually getting. Wow, what a life! 8221; Spending three weeks in Broome for my latest work trip was one of those times. And I’m pleased to report that this latest visit has certainly lived up to my high expectations. In contrast to the multitude of barefoot backpackers and the scruffy mob of locals, there is also an ultra elite side to Broom...

Limiting Scope of Practice in GP: A Philosophical Dilemma | Nomadic GP
https://nomadicgp.wordpress.com/2014/08/17/limiting-scope-of-practice-in-gp-a-philosophical-dilemma
Adventures of a Rural Locum. Limiting Scope of Practice in GP: A Philosophical Dilemma. This entry was posted on August 17, 2014, in General Practice. And tagged family doctor. Most GPs I know pride themselves on being true generalists, and have gravitated towards this area of medicine because they enjoy the challenge and variety that comes with the territory. They also tend to value holistic, patient-centered care and the satisfaction that comes with long term doctor-patient relationships. This question...

Adventures of a Rural Locum. All That Glitters Is Not Gold. I’m into my second year as a locum now and my search continues for the perfect country town to call home. After a fairly length break from clinical work, 2014 kicked off with a four week stint in the wild west town of Kalgoorlie. Kalgoorlie is an historic gold rush town, established alongside the “Golden Mile,” … Continue reading →. Pure Gold – the SMACC Experience. A Granddaughter’s Grief.
