10 year moratorium for overseas-trained doctors

Oversea Trained Doctors who are subject to section 19AB are generally required to work in a DWS for a minimum period of 10 years (referred to as the 10 year moratorium requirement) from the date of their first Australian medical registration.

Does this apply to specialist doctors as well, such as cardiologists, or only GPs?

thank you

It affects specialists but there are exceptions; see this thread:
