Cairns and Northern Beaches, QLD - FNQH
Are you at a professional crossroads? Whether you are a newly Fellowed or seasoned GP, it may be time to reassess your priorities or try something new.
With constant Medicare changes, enormous uncertainties and “lack of control”, it is unsettling. The mental exhaustion after finishing a long day in General Practice can impede quality family time.
GPwSI in Skin Cancer is rewarding both with professional satisfaction and remuneration.
Myths surrounding becoming a GPwSI in Skin Cancer
- I need a surgical background– NOPE, your basic medical training and GP training should be more than adequate to start.
- I need to do flaps and grafts to make a decent living– BIG NO – you can earn good money just by doing skin checks, soft procedures (biopsies, curettes), and simple excisions like ellipses. The trick is to use resources efficiently and charge appropriately.
- It will take me many years to become good at skin cancer work– THIS DEPENDS – 6 months is a good period to become proficient with those mentioned in above point.
- I have done courses but cannot find a place that supports or provide back up to implement those learnings to clinical practice – There are opportunities available where you can get hands on training and support – this will set you up for the rest of your career (at least for your skin cancer repertoire).
