Internal Medicine opportunities in Australia and New Zealand include:
* General Medicine
* Cardiology
* Respiratory Medicine
* Endocrinology
* Gastroenterology
* Neurology
* Rheumatology
* Haematology
* Oncology
Positions at specialist (consultant) level are often available in the above subspecialties. Commonly, however, internal medicine positions tend to be general medicine with an interest in a subspecialty.
At registrar or resident (SHO) level, there are also multiple vacancies in internal medicine throughout Australia and New Zealand.
The practice of medicine in Australia and New Zealand is very similar to that in any other westernised country such as the UK or Ireland. As a rule, evidence based practice is the direction that clinical medical practice is heading in both these countries. Australia and New Zealand are well known for having modern and progressive protocols and guidelines. The availability of interventional cardiology (PTCA) and hi-tech radiology is second-to-none.
IMR are able to organise RACP (Royal Australasian College of Physicians) accredited placements for doctors wishing to count the term completed towards their training in their home country.
IMR has preferred supplier status with many hospitals in both Australia and New Zealand and so can offer physicians the widest choice of positions available. In addition, IMR representatives have detailed knowledge about your specialty and can offer advice on whether you would like to practice in a hospital which offers opportunities in any of the medical subspecialties.
