A welcoming, collaborative and patient-focused workplace
The Opportunity
This is an independent contractor opportunity, ideal for an established Speech Pathologist looking to expand their private practice or a clinician wanting to establish themselves within a supportive multidisciplinary environment.
With an existing patient base, established administrative systems and a growing community presence, this is an opportunity to focus on delivering quality care without the overheads of establishing your own clinic.
