Psychiatrist

Remote Consultant Opportunities Available Australia WideJoin AVHS And Make a Lasting ImpactAbout USAustralian Veteran Health Services (AVHS) is a purpose-driven, multi-disciplinary medical organisation founded by veterans, for veterans. With clinics in Springfield QLD, Daw Park SA and Deakin ACT we specialise in supporting current and former Defence personnel as they transition to civilian life, offering expert assistance with DVA claims, Initial Liability Reports, Permanent Impairment Assessments, VRB reports, and ADF Transition Medicals.

The Opportunity

We are seeking dedicated and experienced Psychiatrists to join our growing team. We have an opportunity for multiple consultant psychiatrists.

Assessments can be completed via telehealth or in person at one of our clinics and are conducted in accordance with the Medicare Benefits Scheme (MBS). Any treatment recommendations will be administered and followed up by the veteran's treating General Practitioner – there is no requirement for ongoing care.

Where a diagnosis is determined as being clearly linked to ADF service history, veterans may elect to lodge a DVA claim. In such cases, your expertise will be instrumental in completing Diagnostic and Assessment reports.

Prestige & Professional Fulfilment

• Industry-Leading Standards: Be part of an organisation that upholds the highest clinical and ethical standards in veteran healthcare.
• Recognition & Appreciation: Your expertise will be highly valued within an organisation that truly understands and prioritises veteran needs.
