Hi Johhnny,

This page here gives an example of the pathway to becoming a general practitioner: https://www.myhealthcareer.com.au/become-a-general-practitioner
You would be starting from the top right hand corner – there may be a grade point average requirement from your dentistry degree as well as a GAMSAT and interview requirement to get into medicine. Generally medical degrees for people with an undergraduate degree are 4 years. Then of course you follow with the intern, resident and fellowship years.

The pathway is very similar for a number of medical specialties: https://www.myhealthcareer.com.au/become-a-doctor
