Day GP sessions at DC Medical Centre
Full-time or part-time day GP sessions in the heart of Sydney — with no section 19AB restrictions.
The Opportunity
Employed day GP position — full-time or part-time — at a thriving inner-city practice, with no section 19AB restrictions
Full-Time or Part-Time Day Sessions
Regular in-hours day clinics at the practice — full-time, or a part-time load with the days that suit you. Tell us your preference on the form.
No 19AB Restrictions
A standard day-session role with no section 19AB after-hours workaround required — suited to doctors with unrestricted Medicare access. If you are subject to the section 19AB moratorium, our after-hours opportunity is built around the after-hours exemption.
Employment & Remuneration
This is an employed position. Remuneration structure, session load (full-time or part-time), rostering, and other employment terms are discussed during the application process.
Section 19AB of the Health Insurance Act restricts Medicare billing for some overseas-trained doctors, typically for their first ten years. These day sessions suit doctors with unrestricted Medicare access. Looking at the after-hours opportunity (19AB exemption) instead? We confirm your 19AB position with you during the application process.

Life back home vs Sydney
