GP/RG Fellows
Fellowship isn’t the end – it’s a new chapter
Becoming a GP or RG Fellow is a major achievement – but it doesn’t mean your connection to IGPTN ends. In fact, Fellows remain a vital part of the IGPTN community, and your experience, leadership and presence matter more than ever.
IGPTN continues to be your professional home beyond Fellowship – supporting connection, growth and sustainability across your career.
As a Fellow member of IGPTN, you are part of a national Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander network shaping the future of general practice and rural generalism.
What IGPTN Offers Fellows
From 2026, IGPTN is expanding its Fellow Support Program – recognising that retaining and supporting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander GPs and RGs is critical for strong communities and a sustainable workforce.
Connection & Community
Practice can be isolating – particularly in rural and remote settings. IGPTN provides opportunities for Fellows to stay connected with peers across Australia, share experiences and strengthen professional and cultural ties.
Professional Development
Access culturally safe professional development opportunities that support clinical excellence, leadership and education.
Workforce Retention & Sustainability
We are committed to supporting Fellows to stay, thrive and lead in general practice and rural generalist roles. IGPTN’s expanded Fellow program focuses on wellbeing, career longevity, and creating pathways that make it possible to remain in practice.
Mentoring & Giving Back
Many Fellows choose to mentor and deliver medical education to IGPTN members on their pathway to fellowship. IGPTN provides structured and informal ways for Fellows to contribute, without pressure or expectation.
Why Stay Connected as a Fellow?
- Remain part of a national Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander GP/RG network
- Access new Fellow-focused programs launching in 2026
- Build leadership, education and professional opportunities
- Contribute to a strong, supported and sustainable Indigenous GP/RG workforce
You’re still part of IGPTN
Fellowship doesn’t mean stepping away – it means stepping into influence, leadership and connection.
