What Psychiatry Locum Doctors Say
"The mental health workforce shortage in WA is real and AU Locums Direct understands the landscape — they placed me at Graylands within days and were upfront about rates and supervision from the start. That transparency is rare."
Dr. Michael T.
Consultant Psychiatrist — Graylands Hospital, Perth
"Fitting locum work around RANZCP advanced training is genuinely complicated. They were the first agency that didn't just say 'we'll make it work' — they actually confirmed supervision arrangements before I committed to anything."
