Careers – Work with us!
Wirreanda on Wheatsheaf is a family, GP owned practice, which prides itself on excellent long term care of patients. We would love to add some more faces and experience to enrich our already wonderful team!
We are a teaching practice and usually enjoy teaching one to two registrars at any one time, with multiple qualified GP supervisors.
For independent practitioner GPs we are happy to discuss an attractive and competitive remuneration package as well as offering some assistance with relocation expenses.
For GP Registrars offer above the NTCER award and can provide some assistance with relocation expenses.
We offer flexible working arrangements to fit in with your life and other commitments. It is very important to us that our staff are supported to work around their other commitments, families and provide work-life balance. We encourage staff to take regular holidays and are conscious of the burn out experienced in the health sector, particularly in the last few years.
If this sounds like the environment for you – please contact our Practice Manager, Louise Rismondo, at manager@wows.com.au

Independent Contractor General Practitioner – Join Our Friendly General Practice
We are a well-established, independent, long term GP owned clinic who have been practising in the area for over 40 years. Over the past 5 years, the ownership structure transitioned to Clare and Nina, who are both long term GPs at the practice.
If you’re a GP who is committed to building meaningful relationships with patients and contributing to a collaborative workplace, we would be delighted to have you join our team.
We’re a community-focused clinic with a common philosophy and commitment to family medicine and continuity of care within General Practice. We are located in Morphett Vale (South Australia), a community minded suburb with a number of schools and childcare facilities in close vicinity. The clinic is local to many non-GP specialist clinics, allied health, diagnostic facilities, tertiary hospitals and an urgent care centre. We have pathology on site, and our clinic provides ECG, holter monitor, 24hr BP monitoring, sleep CBT and overnight home sleep study facilities with capacity to titrate CPAP. We have two RNs working with us and a treatment room fully equipped with tools for advanced skin procedures.
We have recently invested in a modern and streamlined IT system and actively participate in research.
We’re passionate about teaching and enjoy helping shape future doctors. Many of our previous registrars have returned as fellowed GPs. As a RACGP recognised training practice, several of our GPs act as supervisors, and we frequently welcome medical students on placement.
Our GPs are also actively involved in advocacy including RACGP roles and coordination of the local Southern GP Network.
Our doctor team also complement each other with a variety of skills including emergency medicine, sexual and reproductive health (including IUD insertions and capacity to teach IUD insertions) and drug and alcohol experience.
We’re looking for a contractor GP who brings kindness, curiosity, humour and a down to earth approach to patient care.
What you’ll enjoy:
• Autonomy and work life balance
• Focus on quality primary care with 15 min standard appointment and flexibility with your schedule
• A welcoming team that values your expertise
• A steady flow of longstanding patients
• Experienced and helpful support staff
• Flexible capacity up to 10 sessions per week
• Shared Saturday morning roster
• Private billing practice
What we’re hoping for:
• A qualified General Practitioner with current unrestricted AHPRA registration
• Someone who communicates with warmth and clarity
• A team player who enjoys a positive, relaxed work environment
• A clinician who cares deeply about patient wellbeing
• Bonus points: interest in education, also enjoy Friday takeaway
If you’re looking for a clinic where you can be yourself, enjoy your work, and make a real difference in the community, we’d love to meet you.
Get in touch and say hello — we can’t wait to welcome you.

Testimonials:
Dr Rebecca Langhans (GP 1 &2 Registrar in 2024)
“I have been working at Wirreanda on Wheatsheaf Surgery over the last 12 months for my GPT1&2 terms in 2024. This has been a fantastic experience and I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to work at such a supportive and team-oriented practice. My GP supervisor Dr Clare Keogh has been nothing short of amazing – She is engaged, enthusiastic and a great resource not just for clinical knowledge but for guidance on the practical aspects of GP and for examination support. The other GPs at the practice are also wonderful and all very approachable for clinical support, and the nursing and administration staff are all excellent and have a wealth of knowledge and experience. This is a fantastic practice for those in the GP registrar training program and I cannot recommend it highly enough.”
Ananya (medical student 2023):
“It was a wonderful and valuable experience. Everyone was so kind and made me feel like a part of the practice”
Dr Matthew Crabb (previous GP at Wirreanda):
“I found Wirreanda on Wheatsheaf to be a fantastic training practice. The staff were approachable, happy to accommodate my needs, eager to teach, and supportive during my transition from hospital RMO to GP Registrar. I enjoyed my time so much that I chose to return to the practice once I had completed by fellowship and have been with the practice now for close to 5 years. I can highly recommend this practice.”
Dr Clare Keogh (now a practice principal at Wirreanda):
“I was lucky enough to be placed at Wirreanda on Wheatsheaf for my GP1&2 terms in 2016. I felt very supported by my supervisor, Dr Michael Ludlow, and the whole practice team, including the excellent admin and nursing staff and the wonderful practice manager, Kerrie. I enjoyed my placement so much that I came back once I finished my fellowship! I am now one of the practice principals because I believe in a supportive workplace and felt I could work to my maximum potential with the team at Wirreanda. I believe in paying forward in terms of educating the doctors of the future and thoroughly enjoy teaching. I am now privileged to be able to teach medical students and GP registrars.”
