RACGP GP Training

RACGP Training Program

Creek Street Medical Practice has been training GPRs for 20 years- we are still in touch with many past registrars. The supervisors are committed to a high quality training experience and to that end allocate three hours a day tute time per week, uninterrupted, in semester 1, 1.5 hours per week in semester 2, and 1.5 hours per fortnight in semester 3.

Practice Building Details  

The practice operates from an miner’s cottage that has been converted and extended and provides a very pleasant working environment. There are four consulting rooms, treatment room, waiting room, staff room and small garden. The center of Bendigo is a pleasant ten minute walk along the creek.

There are 6 part-time medical practitioners in the practice ( 3 females and 3 male). We have 3 practice nurses. Our practice believes in providing holistic care to all age groups. The doctors all perform minor surgical procedures with assistance from a practice nurse. We are a private billing clinic.

Creek Street Medical Practice has been a fully accredited general practice since 1999 and has been training GPRs for 20 years. Formal teaching time is set aside on Wednesdays with Dr Chris Sasse or Dr Brenda Greenall.
