  ABSTRACT: The purpose of this qualitative article is to explore medical general practitioners’ perspectives about addressing family violence with men from refugee and immigrant backgrounds in Victoria, Australia. Ten general practitioners from across Victoria participated in semi-structured interviews. Five major themes relating to general practitioners’ perspectives emerged from the thematic data analysis: 1) preference to focus on mothers and children who experience family violence and not men who use family violence; 2) cultural backgrounds acting as a barrier to address family violence; 3) family violence as linked to resettlement and mental health concerns; 4) need for a culturally-sensitive and collaborative approach; and 5) broader healthcare systems reform required. Study limitations, implications of findings and recommendations for future research are discussed in terms of broader healthcare systems reform. The authors call for the development of a culturally sensitive and collaborative care system to address family violence with men from refugee and immigrant backgrounds in primary care settings.
