One of the great benefits of having a family practice is that you can build a relationship with your doctor and the whole team. This can help make a massive difference in how you receive medical care.
Access to digital medicine is becoming increasingly important for Australians, with a new GE Voluson E10 ultrasound machine recently purchased by Adelaide Hills O& G. This machine will allow women from rural areas to undergo tertiary-level scans without needing to travel to Adelaide.
Education and Training
The first step in becoming a doctor Adelaide Hills is to complete medical school. This is a university program that involves study at the undergraduate level for three years and postgraduate pre-vocational training in general medicine, surgery, or other specialty medical specialities.
Upon successful completion of medical school, a person is awarded the MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery) as a standard medical degree. Some medical schools also award the higher degree of MD, typically reserved for graduates who have completed further research studies or honorarily given to those who have significantly contributed to their field of medical practice.
Primary health care providers in Adelaide can take advantage of numerous accredited training and professional development opportunities to ensure their continued professional development is aligned with current national priority areas, regional immediate health care needs and emerging trends. Adelaide PHN commissions two leading providers to facilitate a suite of these opportunities.
