Dr Oncall provides personalised recruitment services specifically for doctors. Our company is owned by three doctors who consult in their chosen field of medicine. It’s our first-hand experience as medical practitioners that makes Dr Oncall different to other agencies. We understand the conditions required to effectively and enjoyably work in locum placements.
Call our friendly consultants and find out how we can help find locum opportunities for you.
If you’re a Queensland Health employee, you cannot locum in any other Queensland Health hospital. You can work in Queensland private hospitals as well as public and private hospitals in all other Australian states and territories.
NSW Health employees need permission from the hospital CEO in which they work to locum for NSW Health public hospitals.
As soon as you have your general Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) Medical Board registration, we can connect you with our clients for locum work.
You’ll need to complete and return our registration paperwork before we can help you find a locum placement or shift. Our friendly staff will help you throughout the process to make sure you don’t feel overwhelmed.
Talk with our consultants to help us understand what work you’re interested in. This helps us identify what paperwork is necessary for you to complete.
You’ll need to supply us with the following documentation as part of our standard registration process:
We’ll help you complete any additional paperwork required for your specific placement.
Some hospitals will also have their own paperwork which you’ll receive after your placement and shift have been confirmed.
In most locum placements and shifts, travel and accommodation are provided. Some Dr Oncall clients provide a capped travel allowance, while others provide accommodation only. Some clients will also provide family accommodation. Please confirm your needs when first registering with Dr Oncall so we can focus on finding you work to suit your requirements.
