What we stand for
We put patients before numbers
Family First Medical Group was founded on a simple belief: every patient deserves to be cared for like family. We focus on your overall health and wellbeing, and we take the time to understand what you actually need. For us, quality matters more than quantity.
Time to listen
Safe, thorough and unhurried care, with the time to understand the whole person rather than only today's symptoms.
Continuity of care
Seeing a doctor who knows your history changes the quality of the advice you get. We build our clinics around that.
Clinical independence
Our doctors make clinical decisions, not administrators. That principle does not change as the group grows.
Local and personal
Each clinic stays personal and community-focused, keeping its own identity and its own relationships.
Careers
Practise medicine the way you trained to
We are looking for general practitioners, nurses and practice staff who want to work somewhere that values thorough care over throughput. You keep your clinical independence and the time you need with patients. We take the administration off your desk.
- Unhurried consultingWe insist on safe, thorough care with time to listen. That is a rostering decision, not a slogan.
- The admin handledBilling, payroll, HR, compliance, IT and purchasing are run centrally so you can focus on patients.
- RACGP accredited practicesEvery clinic in the group is accredited against RACGP standards.
- A teaching environmentOur doctors teach and supervise medical students, and we support colleagues who want to do the same.
