Skin Cancer Upskilling/PhD opportunity

These are tumultuous times for GPs with so many changes being made that will adversely affect GPs. Come join our clinic and take advantage of this tremendrous offer - this is not for everyone!

GP Position | FT/PT | Cairns, QLD Page viewed: times Posted: 28/05/2025

We are looking for doctors who are looking for a change and a breath of fresh air to join our practice. Apart from Cairns and FNQ being a tropical paradise, it has one of the highest incidence of skin cancer in a given geographical region.

 

 FNQH Cairns Integrated Melanoma Centre is a centre of excellence for Skin Cancer Diagnosis, Treatment, Research and Education.

We have an onsite pathology lab and in-house pathologist which means you can do frozen sections and CCPDMA with results available in under 60 minutes. 

Other technologies being the VectraWB360 and an Invivo Confocal Microscope – Training will be provided to use this.

Although our doctors bill quite well, we are NOT looking for doctors who specifically are looking to increase their billings. If you are interested in research, upskilling, teaching, innovating and using novel technologies – we want to talk to you. 

We are a very busy practice with most of our doctors booked for at least 3 weeks at a time and we are private billing.

 I have been asked by the lead of PhD@work program at JCU to help recruit suitable doctors to enroll for the program. This program is new and is all about candidates being innovative and coming up with solutions for “gaps” they find in their workplace. 

Working in our practice will give you an excellent opportunity to enroll for this program. You can do this program while working in our clinic. You can also upskill in Skin Cancer Medicine and Surgery at the same time. 

Please do not let this opportunity intimidate you – there is a lot of support, guidance, hand holding available here. It will suit anyone from a new fellow to an experienced skin cancer doctor. Let your innovative flare take control!!!!
