Myrtleford has had visiting Doctors since the 1850s.

In 1938, Dr Clive Beaumont built his home (and Surgery) in Standish Street.

Today, Standish Street Surgery is a modern GP Practice, and has a strong track record of training GP Registrars since 2006.

Doctors training and working here will be part of a proud heritage of medical professionals, and a strong, collaborative working culture. You will be well supported through the entire process of Registrar training, through to your Fellowship exams and beyond.

North East Victoria is also a great place to raise a family, with ample opportunities for outdoor activities, and high quality schools.
