Services
Patients with complex invisible illness don't need another first appointment — they've had dozens. What they're missing is a GP who knows the whole story, who holds continuity while specialists rotate through single decisions, and who can write the advocacy letter without needing it all explained again.
biio. was built for these patients — hypermobility, dysautonomia, MCAS, chronic pain and fatigue, and the presentations that travel with them. In two years we've cared for more than 4,000 people across more than 17,000 consults and grown to a team of more than 50. We're now opening a Melbourne clinic in July/August — our first east-coast site, with Sydney and Brisbane to follow.
We're looking for a General Practitioner to join it onsite in Collingwood as the longitudinal medical home for patients across our pathways. The caseload is broad by design: within this patient group you can weight your practice toward the presentations you're most drawn to — connective tissue and autonomic, hormonal, neurodivergent health, pain and fatigue — rather than being slotted into a single niche. Integrative practitioners are welcome.
You won't carry these patients alone. You'll work within a multidisciplinary team — nurse practitioners, our consultant rheumatology and neurology, physiotherapy, psychology, dietetics and exercise physiology — who reason through complex cases together rather than in isolation. Before each consultation, the relevant picture is already assembled in biio.graphy: specialist correspondence, pathology trends, medication history and current pathway-team plans, so you arrive ready to think rather than rebuild the file. biio.graphy organises the information; you decide assessment, diagnosis, treatment, risk and referral.
This is also a place to develop, and we've made that concrete. You'll have individual and peer supervision built into how you work, regular GP and cross-disciplinary professional development, and ready access to the specialists whose correspondence you'd usually wait months for. Care coordination, NDIS and Centrelink paperwork and routine correspondence are handled by our support team, so your time stays with patients.
Integrated care breaks down the moment someone stops listening, so we hire for the opposite. The people who do well here are low-ego and high-EQ: they ask before they assume and they treat another discipline's read on a patient as something to learn from rather than defend against. Humility, openness and inclusivity aren't slogans here — they're the conditions that let a multidisciplinary team reason as one.
This will suit a GP who values continuity over volume, who'd rather reason through a complex case with colleagues than alone, and who wants the room to build genuine expertise in this patient group. It's less suited to someone after a high-throughput, six-minute list.
The role is onsite in Melbourne, in Collingwood, with flexible days — from one or two a week up to full-time as your caseload builds. Engagement is on a 70% billings split. The clinicians who help open Melbourne will shape how the service develops.
