  • Who's coming up next to do this work?' Generational tensions in accounts of providing HIV care in the community

    Open AccessChristy E Newman, John Bf De Wit et al.ARTICLEHealth An Interdisciplinary…2016References: 19

    Generational change is believed to be transforming the educational and employment preferences of medical trainees. In this article, we examine generational tensions in interviews with policy leaders and clinicians on workforce issues within one subset of the Australian medical profession: general practitioners who provide care to people with HIV in community settings. Integrating the accounts of policy leaders (n = 24) and clinicians representing…

  • No Ordinary Mainstream Illness

    Open AccessA Persson, Christy E Newman et al.ARTICLEQualitative Health Research2014Cited by: 4References: 37

    Research has shown that social representations of HIV can constitute barriers to health workers' willingness to provide HIV care. Considering a growing shortage in the HIV primary workforce in Western countries, we examine how HIV is perceived today by doctors involved in its care. In 1989 Sontag predicted that once the virus became better understood and treatable, the dehumanizing meanings that defined the early epidemic would vanish and HIV wou…

  • Australian prescribers' perspectives on ART initiation in the era of “treatment as prevention”

    Limin Mao, John De Wit et al.ARTICLEAIDS Care2013

    This study explores Australian prescribers' attitudes towards Treatment as Prevention (TasP) and their practices around initiating combination antiretroviral treatment (cART) for HIV. A brief online survey was conducted nationally amongst antiretroviral treatment (ART) prescribers in Australia. The sample broadly represented ART prescribers in Australia (N = 108), with 40.7% general practitioners (GPs), 25.9% sexual health clinic-based physicians…

  • Combatendo as DCNT

    Open AccessJ De Maeseneer, Richard G Roberts et al.ARTICLERevista Brasileira de Medicina de…2011

    A “Aliança DCNT” (“NCD Alliance”)1 visa colocar as doenças crônicas não transmissíveis (DCNT) na agenda global de saúde, a fim de enfrentar a chamada “crise das DCNT”.

  • What moves a family doctor to specialise in HIV? Interviews with Australian policy key informants

    Christy E Newman, Michael R Kidd et al.ARTICLECulture Health & Sexuality2011

    The population of people living with HIV in Australia is increasing, requiring an expert primary care workforce to provide HIV clinical care into the future. Yet the numbers of family doctors or general practitioners (GPs) training as community-based HIV medication prescribers may be insufficient to replace those retiring, reducing hours or changing roles. We conducted semi-structured interviews between February and April, 2010, with 24 key infor…

  • Comparing ‘doctor’ and ‘patient’ beliefs about the role of illicit drug use in gay men’s depression

    Open AccessChristy E Newman, Martin Holt et al.ARTICLEHealth & Social Care in the…2011References: 6

    High rates of both illicit drug use and depression are consistently reported among gay men. However, little is known about how beliefs about drug use shape clinical encounters between gay men and health professionals, and that in turn affect clinical communication and care, particularly in relation to depression. We compared 'doctor' and 'patient' beliefs about the role of illicit drug use in gay men's depression. Semi-structured interviews were …

One of the qualitative arms consisted of in-depth interviews with general practitioners (GPs) with high caseloads of gay men. The approach to discourse analysis was informe…

  • The black dog just came and sat on my face and built a kennel

    Open AccessHenrike Körner, Christy E Newman et al.ARTICLEHealth An Interdisciplinary…2011References: 35

    This article reports on in-depth interviews with gay men about their experiences and understanding of depression. It is a key outcome of the collaboration between social researchers, general practitioners and community partners to investigate the management of depression in gay men in primary care settings. As part of the qualitative arm of the project in-depth interviews were conducted with 40 gay men in Sydney and Adelaide (Australia). The appr…
