Promoting Great Medical Culture: People, Peers and Places

The Australasian Doctors’ Health Conference 2025 (ADHC2025), taking place at 1 Hotel Melbourne from 27th to 29th November, 2025 is continuing a proud tradition held every two years since 1999 by the Doctors' Health Alliance, and promises to be a solutions-focused gathering under the theme: Promoting Great Medical Culture: People, Peers and Places. We warmly encourage doctors at every stage of their career—as well as everyone supporting the health workforce in its many forms—to join us in this vital conversation.

‍

At ADHC2025, you will engage with a diverse cohort of participants, including doctors’ health organisations, medicolegal experts, specialists in organisational change and clinical governance, and leaders in narrative medicine, the science of compassion, and workplace safety. Our program is designed to facilitate meaningful networking and engagement across the full spectrum of the medical profession, including those working within complex health systems, medicolegal and regulatory bodies, and financial institutions.

‍

The conference recognises the power of conversation and storytelling as the cornerstones of our profession’s culture. We are committed to enabling individuals, fostering peer support, and strengthening understanding within our workplaces and health systems. This gathering acknowledges the robust research demonstrating that doctors’ health is central to delivering quality care for our communities. We will address barriers to health access and the factors that increase risk of burnout, while moving the conversation towards actionable solutions—empowering us all as individuals, as colleagues, and as organisations.

We look forward to welcoming you to Melbourne and to your participation in this significant dialogue. Should you require further information or wish to register your attendance, please visit https://adhc.org.au/
