Why you should join us!

Dr Simon Torvaldsen
Chair, AMA (WA) General Practice Group
"Advocating for GPs is a core AMA (WA) activity as General Practice is recognised as the heart of the health system. We take great pride in representing local GP concerns at a federal level and lobbying for change. From effecting wins such as thawing of the Medicare freeze for GPs first and resolving the pathology rent issue to taking on the after-hours corporates, pharmacist incursions as well as Medicare, the government and its regulators – the AMA (WA)’s eternal vigilance and behind-the-scenes action ensures the viability of your practice and profession. Yet we are only as strong as our membership, so join us as we continue our advocacy for General Practice."

Support and Representation
The AMA (WA) works as a collective voice for general practitioners, representing their interests at the state and federal level as well as offering tailored support on a range of professional and business matters. We help and support GPs by providing advice on industrial and employment issues, employment contracts, dealing with complaints, ethical issues, Medicare audits, fees and other support services.
Our General Practice advocacy is informed by the work and guidance of the AMA (WA) General Practice Group, which is active on key matters of concern to GPs in Western Australia. The Group advocates on behalf of GPs, makes submissions on behalf of the profession and lobbies for improvements to health and General Practice. It also assists in the formulation of AMA (WA) policy relating to General Practice.
