Why you should join us!
AMA (WA) member since 2014
Dr Rosalind Forward
GP Registrar
"As GP registrars, we are some of the most isolated and vulnerable doctors in the community. The AMA (WA) can help advocate for and support GP registrars both individually to negotiate contracts, and as a group to improve our terms and conditions. There is power in numbers and to get the most from the AMA (WA), we need to band together as a group –membership and involvement in the AMA is one of the best ways to do this. So, if you aren’t a member, now is the time to join."
