During busy and challenging times, it is the last thing doctors are thinking about….‘your own health’.
“ Maintaining your health and your peak performance is vital, though not easy in a busy rural practice ”, said Dr Roger Sexton, Medical Director of Doctors’ Health SA, “ The GP team at Doctors’ Health SA are able to see rural doctors over telehealth after hours, or there are some rural practices and GPs who are happy to see doctors as patients ”.
The Doctors’ Health SA model is about your whole health and supporting you throughout your medical career – personally and professionally. The many transitions across your career pose different challenges along the way and it is important to have a good team around you, and that includes having your own GP.
