On Call Locums was established in 1988 by Dr David Scott, a Medical Practitioner experienced in locum work.  Dr Scott saw a role in helping to connect medical practitioners with placement opportunities in Australian hospitals, medical practices and health care services.

"Many hospitals and medical practices struggle to find qualified doctors to fill important positions," he says. "At the same time, I know many doctors are interested in obtaining work in different settings. On Call Locums is skilled in connecting the two for their mutual benefit."

In 2008 On Call Locums became part of Healthcare Australia, the nation’s premier provider of Nursing Workforce Solutions and Homecare Services, with operations in every State and Territory. By joining Healthcare Australia On Call Locums could offer a wider range of career opportunities right across the country and now has the advantage of being part of a highly efficient corporate infrastructure, yet still maintaining a boutique agency feel.

On Call Locums has assisted with thousands of placements for doctors, in either a locum or permanent capacity. Contact us if you would like to find out more about how we can help facilitate a successful placement for you.
