1) How difficult itd be to get a senior post eg. AC /CON in polyclinic M.Med Fam Med/ GDFM?
2) What’s the duty/ expectations on an AC/CON in polyclinics ? Seeing patients? (Quota?) ? Training & Admin work?
3) Besides Polyclinics, what are the other options as Fam
Med trained Dr / Fellow ?
Thanks a lot !

1. with m.med fam med , ac is given to u in 3 years long as u meet requirement, aka average performer.
no chance with gdfm or fam med training from other countries . to become consultant u need fellowship ( but doing fellowship doesn't guarantee u consultant )
2. up to you. it's a mix of clinical, admin , research or teaching. want be clinic head u at least 50 percent admin. become key trainer at least 40 percent teaching.
most of us have a mix. unfortunately u need to see patients no matter what. quota is 45 patient per day
3. public wise, community hospital is where fammies can shine. it's a mix of internal , rehab med. u can dabble a bit of palliative , dementia work if u keen. lastly is transition services seen at fmcc, cgh and ttsh. slightly more complicated cases are handled by them for 3 months before distributed to primary care.
