Dear GPSN members,
Welcome to 2026!
And for many of you, welcome to med school and welcome to GPSN.
Whether you are a first-year medical student just beginning to navigate your way around the lecture halls or a final-year student roaming around the wards, you have found a home here.
General Practice is the backbone of our healthcare system. A speciality defined by diversity, longitudinal care and the unique privilege of being a pillar of support in a patient’s life. At GPSN, our mission is simple: to inspire, promote and support the next generations of GPs/RGs.
After a very successful National Council in McLaren Vale SA last month where GPSN Club representatives met their respective Heads of Departments (General Practice) , we are thrilled to see what this year holds. We have an incredible lineup of events, including clinical skills nights, statewide conferences, career nights and academic tutorials. So, be sure you are following your GPSN Local Club on Instagram or Facebook and get keen to see what general practice is all about.
But remember…
The journey through medicine is a marathon, not a sprint. GPSN is here to provide you with the encouragement and resources you need to cross the finish line with a clear vision of your future. That is why we have partnered with eMedici – the only Australian based MCQ bank – to provide a 20% discount for our members who use the code GPSN2026.
I encourage you to be curious, ask questions and lean into the community we’ve built.
General Practice or Rural Generalism isn’t just a career choice, it’s a commitment to the health of our communities. I am honoured to lead this year’s GPSN National Executive Team and can’t wait to meet many of you at our upcoming events.
Stay curious. Stay inspired. And welcome to GPSN!
Best wishes,
Dineshe Mohanarajah
GPSN National Chair 2026
