He took a leading role in establishing the Victorian branch of the British Medical Association, was actively involved in the regular gatherings of the Intercolonial Medical Congress of Australasia (renamed Australasian Medical Congress in 1905). He championed reforms in the treatment of the insane and the use of psychological therapies. He also continued to publish articles in the Medical Journal of Australia on war neuroses and psychology. In one such article published in 1919 Springthorpe passionately advocated that: 'no teaching hospital can leave psychology, any more than physiology, out of the curriculum, no teaching hospital can remain without its psychological department, and no up-to-date medical practitioner can leave this priceless talent buried in the dust of ignorance and fight his battle against disease with this, his right arm, tied behind his back'.
