GPEP and Community

Primary care RMOs have a dedicated voice in the RDA, with a national executive member elected to represent RMOs training in GPEP, and working in the community. On this page you will find useful information for GPEP1 and GPEP2 trainees.

Your Rep on the National Executive

Dr. Rex Liao

Kia ora!

My name’s Rex and after spending the last three years at Waikato Hospital, I will be commencing GPEP1 in 2024 in the same region.

I have been a delegate ever since the beginning of my tenure as a RMO as I have been passionate about advocating for my peers and working towards safer working conditions for RMOs as a whole.

I am proud to now represent my colleagues working in the community as I embark on training. I hope to continue to build on the work laid down by my predecessors with the NZRDA.

Please get in touch if you have any questions or concerns!
