My last placement with Medrecruit was at Waikato hospital on the North Island. Waikato hospital is great! It is quite a big hospital, and they’ve got all the specialties which is good exposure to different things and the team was really friendly.

I love building relationships with my consultants and matching them in roles that help them to achieve their personal and career goals.

Medrecruit continue to advocate for, educate and work towards better health and wellbeing for all doctors.
Yes! Most locum placements offer travel and accommodation arrangements. We can help negotiate this for you. This is usually hospital accommodation or a nice bed and breakfast, and flight or petrol reimbursement.
Locum placements can be as short as a couple of days, though most doctors prefer slightly longer placements (a few weeks or months) so there’s time to get to know the area and the team.

Because we have a huge network of doctors, we save clinics and hospitals time (and money) by taking the stress out of the hiring and credentialing process.
This depends on where you work – the hospital or clinic chooses how a doctor is paid. This will work one of three ways:
Your recruitment specialist can let you know which method you’ll be paid by for each job you undertake.
