High-Impact Locum GP Role – Pilbara Mining Community, WA

“Work where you’re needed most. Rewarding GP opportunity in WA’s rugged red heartland.”

At Prescript Recruitment, we connect doctors with purposeful roles that improve lives — for patients, communities, and doctors alike. This locum placement in Western Australia’s Pilbara region offers far more than clinical work: it’s a chance to provide vital healthcare to a thriving mining town and its neighbouring Indigenous communities.

You’ll be working with one of Australia’s leading integrated healthcare providers, operating across the country to deliver high-quality primary care and occupational health services. With excellent infrastructure, strong clinical support, and FIFO flexibility, this is a rare opportunity to step into a meaningful and well-supported role in the heart of the resources sector.

The Position

This role suits an experienced VR GP who is comfortable delivering care in a remote setting. You’ll manage a mix of primary care presentations and occasional after-hours responsibilities, backed by a professional team of nurses and administrative staff. Nurses are the first responders for on-call requirements, ensuring your after-hours load is manageable and well-supported.

Clinic Hours:

• Monday to Friday: 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM

• Late shifts until 7:30 PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays

• Weekends & Public Holidays: 8:00 AM – 1:00 PM (afternoon reserved for admin/results)

After-Hours Requirement:

• 15 hours per week outside of clinic hours (shared with RNs)

Workplace Environment:

• Modern clinic setting within a mining town

• Focus on general primary care, preventative health, and occasional occupational medicine

• Strong nursing support and administrative structure

Dates Available
