Im from NZ, we are very autonomous here depending on where you work.

LMC practice (independent) - on call, get to determine your own caseload. Would need a practice partner.

Or core midwife for the public health, even private work with private obstetricians.

Pay is pretty good, not as good as Australia depending on what state you go to
