Working with you to build a satisfying career

  • "Outback locum jobs are the antithesis of medicine in cities. I go back to first principles and am often the difference between a medical service staying open and being shut down. It’s a truly humbling and rewarding experience and I can thank Wavelength for helping me find the best locum jobs."

    Dr Amin
    Locum General Practitioner
  • "The locum team at Wavelength are just fabulous. I have done several long-term locum jobs with them and they have always been very helpful, professional, caring and prompt. I highly recommend Wavelength to any doctor looking for locum jobs in Psychiatry."

    Dr Arun
    Locum Psychiatrist
  • "My locum work has never been more fulfilling; I have learned new skills, seen many fascinating places and met many interesting people since enrolling with Wavelength. Before each locum job, I receive exact details of my travel and accommodation, they contact me on day one to see that induction has taken place and that I have no concerns with the clinic. I highly recommend Wavelength."

    Dr Rosaleen
    Locum General Practitioner
