Thank you for attending RDAQ2026

Thank you to everyone who joined us at RDAQ2026, Stockyards & Stethoscopes: Medicine in the Heart of Australia.

It was a pleasure to bring together rural doctors from across Queensland to connect, share knowledge, celebrate achievements, and strengthen the rural medical community. The conversations, collaboration, and commitment to improving rural healthcare made this year’s conference truly memorable.

Looking Ahead to RDAQ2027

We are already looking forward to welcoming you to the Sunshine Coast for RDAQ2027, taking place 24–26 June 2027. Be sure to save the date and submit an expression of interest to receive the latest conference news and updates.

Thank you for being part of the RDAQ community. We can’t wait to see you on the Sunshine Coast!

On behalf of the Rural Doctors Association of Queensland, we are thrilled to invite you to our 2026 Annual Conference in tropical Gimuy | Cairns from 25–27 June.

Each year, our conference brings together rural doctors to reflect on our work, learn from each other, celebrate achievements, and reconnect as a community. There’s something truly special about this gathering—ask anyone who’s attended, and they will tell you it’s an experience that keeps them coming back year after year.

RDAQ2026 will recognise and celebrate rural General Practitioners as the backbone of rural healthcare while addressing the real challenges facing primary care today.

We can’t wait to see you in Gimuy | Cairns.
