2021 RACGP National Awards

2021 RACGP National Awards

Do you know an extraordinary GP, GP in training, GP supervisor, or general practice going above and beyond?

The RACGP proudly recognises the value of GPs in our community, and celebrates these extraordinary achievements through our annual awards.

GPs receive all kinds of acknowledgment from their patients, but it's important to formally celebrate this work and dedication to holistic patient care.

What do the winners receive?

Every RACGP Awards finalist is an inspirational doctor and a central member of their community. Recipients of previous awards have gone above and beyond to ensure their patients are at ease and have devoted their careers to enhancing the lives of others.

State winners for each of the four categories are recognised at state faculty Academic & Award Ceremonies and they receive a trophy and winners kit to help celebrate their win.

The national winners are chosen from the pool of state winners.
