The role includes acute inpatient nephrology, chronic kidney disease management, dialysis oversight and outpatient renal clinics. Consultants contribute to multidisciplinary care and service development within a modern and expanding regional referral framework. This opportunity will appeal to Nephrologists seeking clinical breadth, stability and the ability to make meaningful impact within a growing regional community.
This is the primary regional referral health service for its district, supporting a catchment population of approximately 150,000 people. A recent major redevelopment has strengthened inpatient, ICU and emergency infrastructure, reinforcing the hospital’s role as a regional hub.

- In-centre haemodialysis services
- Integration with General Medicine and ICU
- Multidisciplinary collaboration with Endocrinology, Cardiology and Palliative Care
- Structured referral pathways to metropolitan transplant centres
The service supports both metropolitan-adjacent and rural communities, creating a diverse clinical caseload.
Why Consider This Role:
- Large regional referral centre
- Modern hospital infrastructure
- Established dialysis services
- Broad acute and chronic renal exposure
- Strong MDT collaboration
- Substantially comparable pathway supported
For interstate or international applicants, the RACP specialist assessment and AHPRA registration pathway can be clearly structured and supported.
Based in a well-established regional city approximately two hours from Melbourne, the area offers strong schooling, short commute times and a welcoming community atmosphere, while remaining connected to metropolitan services.
Requirements:
- Fellowship of the Royal Australasian College of Physicians (FRACP) – Nephrology
- Specialist Registration with AHPRA (or eligibility)
