"I love the great diversity in rural general practice. Being a GP I’m able to use my enthusiasm for health care to connect with people, and motivate them to change."

Dr Thomas Armour

"General practice is the most difficult, most interesting and most diverse specialty of them all. I also noticed during my training that most GPs I met were very happy with their jobs, and that appealed to me a lot."
