Your Future. Your Practice. Your Growth.

We are currently representing a well-established private hospital in regional Victoria seeking a FRACP-qualified Geriatrician to establish and grow a private practice within a modern, supportive hospital environment.

This is an outstanding opportunity for a specialist looking to build a sustainable private practice with strong institutional backing, guaranteed income support, and long-term service development potential.

This contemporary private facility forms part of a leading national healthcare group and services a large regional catchment across North East Victoria.

Key features include:

• 30+ inpatient beds including dedicated rehabilitation capacity

• Consulting rooms and practice management support
• Marketing assistance to promote your services to local GPs and specialists

• Relocation and accommodation assistance available

There is strong immediate demand, with future succession planning opportunities due to an ageing VMO group in the region.

• Thriving regional community with excellent schools and family amenities
• Close proximity to wineries, national parks, and outdoor recreation
• Easy access to Melbourne (approximately 2hours)

Ideal for specialists seeking meaningful community impact with lifestyle balance.
