AMA looks forward to working with new RACGP President to support general practice
The AMA congratulates Dr Nicole Higgins on her election as the next President of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners.
AMA President Professor Steve Robson welcomed Dr Higgins as RACGP President-elect, saying the AMA looked forward to working with her as both organisations strive to advocate for general practice, which is under increasing pressure.
“General practice is the cornerstone of Australia’s health system and Dr Higgins is someone who we know is passionate about general practice and already enjoys a good relationship with the AMA,” Professor Robson said.
“The AMA has always had a strong and respectful relationship with the RACGP and has worked closely with current President, Dr Karen Price.
“We have worked with the RACGP on the shared aim of improving the medical environment for doctors and we look forward to continuing this work with Dr Higgins,” Professor Robson said.
