I dream of being able to improve the health of all Australians

As a leader within the RACGP I dream of being able to improve the health of all Australians through provision of sustainable accessible care in General practice.

I believe that the time is right to achieve better remuneration for general practice, including GP's in training and those working in remote and rural settings and for populations with lower social determinants of health. I want GP's to be proud of being career generalists and of the central role they play in the Australian health care system.

I want all GP's to want to be a member of the RACGP rather than need to be a member because of the value that membership in RACGP plays in advocacy, education and professional development.
