Celebrating rural health champions
Monday April 14, 2025
The WA Rural Health Excellence Awards, organised annually by Rural Health West and WA Country Health Service, shine a spotlight on the exceptional individuals and organisations dedicated to improving rural health outcomes.
The AMA (WA) was proud to sponsor the Clinical Leader of the Year award, presented to David and Hayley Rigby from Pilbara Therapy Services (pictured with AMA (WA) President Dr Michael Page).
From humble beginnings in 2014, David and Hayley have grown their practice into a multidisciplinary hub that’s transforming care across the Pilbara. Their commitment to patient-centred services, rural outreach, and professional leadership is making a lasting impact on the region.
We also congratulate AMA (WA) member Dr Holly Reid, named Intern of the Year for her contributions at Albany Health Campus. Holly, who grew up on a Kojonup farm, is passionate about rural health and has already shown strong leadership through her involvement in junior doctor education and local quality improvement initiatives.
The AMA (WA) is delighted to work closely with Rural Health West to support doctors across the State, and we’re proud to help recognise the vital contributions of those making a difference in regional communities.
