Support Programs

AMA Victoria cares about the health and wellbeing of doctors and medical students. We offer a range of services to support doctors and medical students to maintain good health and to maximise wellbeing. A feature of these programs is doctors looking after doctors and an understanding of the specialised needs of the medical profession. These programs also provide an opportunity for doctors and medical students to give back to their profession through volunteer roles.
