Why Locum Doctors love Wavelength

  • I have worked for quite a few locum agencies in the past and I can honestly say I have never experienced the degree of attention to my desires and needs that I have had from Wavelength.

    Professor Paul
    ED Consultant
  • I don’t see the need to go with other locum agencies. I do all my locum work through Wavelength and they keep me busy.

    Dr Peter
    Locum Specialist Renal and General Physician
  • Wavelength provides a superior service: excellent info about the expectations, on-call, peer and JMO support for each locum – there are no surprises they are good at what they do.
