Canadian doctors needed in Australia

Opportunity to grow your medical career.

Why are Canadian doctors moving to Australia?

A move to Australia from Canada offers exciting career and lifestyle opportunities. In most cases, Australia will recognise your medical qualifications and we’ve spent 24 years helping Canadian doctors relocate to Australia to work in amazing roles and experience the Australian way of life.

Australia is currently experiencing unprecedented shortage of doctors across all grades and specialties and we're here to support your move from Canada to a coastal, outback, city or rural placement in a public, private or community setting. Whether you are looking for a year’s fellowship position, a consultant role with less stress and better hours, or your first leadership position, we have hundreds of roles available Australia-wide.

It’s a big move, so we’ve prepared all the information you’ll need to get this exciting new chapter in your career underway.
