Health Professionals

The Great Southern GP Network (GSGPN) is a network of general practitioners who work within a geographical area encompassing the Great Southern region of WA.

GSGPN has been in operation since 1992 with the main aim being to provide a vehicle to unite general practitioners within the region by providing up-to-date information and Continuing Professional Development activities, and to improve/enhance the health care of patients within our locality.
