Testimonials
Read what some of your colleagues have to say about their experiences with Remedy Medical Recruitment.
“We were delighted with the service especially that you were able to find us jobs together which was exactly what we hoped for. It was great to have guidance for all the forms, references and registration requirements, it took a while to pull all the paperwork together and we needed somebody encouraging us to send stuff off in time to get the jobs!
Work has been great, relief job has been challenging but definitely learning more due to the variety and the pay is good, hospital is brand new and most things work more efficiently than at home from the IT systems to the ward work. Travel is just as much fun as we expected, we try to get away most weekends.
We would absolutely tell anybody who was interested in a year out to go for New Zealand, they wont regret it and we would pick Remedy again because you made everything go so smoothly and were a pleasure to deal with.”

We found out about Remedy Recruitment through a friend and he couldn't recommend them highly enough. We were having some problems with another agency so we said we’d give Barbara an e mail and see if she could help us. We were away travelling at the time and were not the most organised people in the world so it's a testament to the amazing work of Barbara and Esther that they had us all organised and set up with the jobs we wanted, where we wanted them. They made the whole process as painless for us as possible which we really appreciated. When we met them finally in Christchurch we found out they were really lovely people and we now all consider Barbara to be our New Zealand Mom! We’ll be recommending them to all our friends at home...... Dr C Fahey, L Ryan, R Nee, C Murphy – Ireland
“Gordon and I were really pleased with the level of support we received from you during the initial application process following us all the way through our visa applications. It felt like a very personal service, and I have been really confident in recommending Remedy Recruitment to anyone who asks! I had, in fact, contacted several agencies to begin with, but Esther's rapid and helpful responses to all my inquiries quickly swayed me to ignore the other companies! Dr C Blau
“Once I decided I wanted to work in New Zealand, Esther and Barbara at Remedy made it all very straight forward. They worked hard to find me a job that suited me in an area of New Zealand I wanted to live in. There were quick and helpful email responses to questions from application to the medical council to visa applications (even though the latter is not their field of expertise), and patiently answered my many questions. They also sent regular emails reminding me of deadlines approaching or what the next step is. Barbara and Esther made the application process much less daunting and much more manageable. I cannot recommend them highly enough for their friendly and efficient service. Thank you”. Dr K Wright
“I used Remedy Medical Recruitment to obtain my current position in Christchurch. I had previously used another agency, but after meeting Barbara, I felt she would be more attuned to my needs, and would have personal knowledge about the hospital and community where I wanted to live. Barbara did a fantastic job coordinating my job and move. Barbara has a passion for her work and a personal commitment to make sure the job is well done. I highly recommend her and Remedy Recruitment and will use them again if the opportunity arises”. Dr M Dhanak (USA) MD (Geriatrician)
"From the very outset, Barbara gave a very clear idea of what we could expect from the seemingly uncertain path Lucy and I were determined to embark upon. Our initial interest was met by Barbara's informative reply and henceforth; she could be relied upon to get back to us with rapid answers to our multitude of probably irrelevant questions. We were guided expertly through the endless forms and paperwork necessary to make the transition of working as a doctor in a foreign country and Barbara could always be counted on to offer friendly, informative advice at every step. This offered great reassurance in, what I'm sure, would otherwise have been stressful times. Not only did she manage to facilitate my relocation to an ideal job in New Zealand, but Barbara was also instrumental in locating Lucy a position as a nurse as well as helping to organise accommodation for when we arrived. The service didn't even stop there. As soon as we had settled in, she was there to offer us a heartfelt welcome to New Zealand and check that we had everything we needed. She also shouted us lunch!I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone.

“I was put in contact with Remedy by a friend in Ireland who had spent quite a bit of time in NZ and highly recommended them as agents for overseas doctors looking for work in NZ. I had heard of numerous other agencies, but cannot imagine that any of them could have been more prompt, professional and organised than Remedy. From the outset, Remedy provided a friendly and efficient service and exhausted all possibilities in relation to job offers all over the country. I was particularly keen to work in a larger centre of population and they persisted until I was offered a position in Wellington. I was kept up to date with regular e-mails and what could have been a complicated process was made as simple as possible with checklists of forms that needed to be sent, through helping with my NZMC application, organising Occ health forms etc. I would whole-heartedly recommend Remedy to a friend as an agency that honestly cares for the satisfaction of the doctors it places in employment and goes that extra mile to ensure that the transition to working in NZ is as smooth as possible.” Dr K O' Brien MB BCh BAO BA IRELAND 'I was very happy with the service I received from Remedy in obtaining work in New Zealand. I found they were extremely helpful and took a lot of the stress out of finding a job. The result was a job I was happy with, in a place I was happy with. I found it was a very personal service' (LF - Irish doctor)
“I would like to take this opportunity to thank Remedy for all their help in making my move to New Zealand possible. I am so pleased that I chose to use Remedy to find me a position over here. It wasn't just that Remedy found me a job. They were there to guide me through the whole process of registration and even advise me about getting a work permit. Remedy saved me so much time and effort, and without them I would probably never have made the deadlines for getting here in time. It didn’t stop at just getting me the job. They arranged to pick me up from the airport in New Zealand, and even made sure that I was looked after while I was here. I honestly can not recommend them enough. Remedy went way above and beyond the call of duty.” DR L GAMAGE "Remedy Recruitment found me the job I wanted, when I wanted, quickly and efficiently. They provided tireless assistance with all the relevant paperwork, information regarding Immigration and Medical Council requirements and made the daunting process of finding medical employment in a foreign country simple and easy for me. They even helped us find a place to live! New Zealand is a wonderful place to live and work and I would highly recommend it to anyone. Thank you, Remedy Recruitment! Dr. C. Shilling MB BCh, BAO
“Many thanks. Wellington is an amazing place and the hospital is very efficient & well run. There's a great atmosphere here too making it a good place to work. The service and help from Remedy was first class. The important pieces were highlighted and we were helped throughout the form filling process. The icing on the cake was the hamper on arrival! Highly recommended...” Dr K Murphy – Ireland
“With regards to your service as a recruitment agency, Remedy have been friendly, helpful and professional throughout, and offer a personal touch. Remedy guided us through the all the necessary processes and paperwork to ensure that things all went very smoothly and have really helped us settle in New Zealand. I would definitely recommend Remedy to other UK doctors who are looking to work in New Zealand.”
Dr K Zalewska MB BCh (Hons) – UK
“You and Esther have been invaluable in our move, and I genuinely believe we would not have done it without you.” Dr M Tootill – UK
We found Remedy extremely helpful. Both Barbara and Esther made it very easy for us to find a suitable job and make the move to New Zealand. They were very approachable and were always there to give advice and answer our questions. We will highly recommend Remedy to anyone looking for work in New Zealand.” Anonymous - Irish doctor “I was in the middle of completing my intern year in Ireland when I decided I wanted to go to New Zealand and work for a year. I cannot sing Remedy's praises enough; to say they were brilliant is an understatement. At a time when I was struggling to keep pace with a busy medical job they seemed to make everything for my plans abroad fall into place. All I had to do was email a C.V. They located hospitals and got back to me with options on jobs, when I expressed interest they organised everything and were so helpful with emails and advice not just about the job but how to organise my work visa and all the other necessary documentation. On arriving in New Zealand they continued to keep an eye on me and when problems arose they were there to help me through. All in all they have been superb in helping and have a real personal touch, which is so comforting when you are so far away from the familiarities of home!”
Dr H Gunning – BA MB BCh BAO – Ireland
When I decided I wanted to work in New Zealand, I had no idea how to go about organising it. I got in touch with Remedy Recruitment and they just walked me through the entire thing. Getting a job in New Zealand isn't as easy as just showing up to a hospital and saying 'Right, can I start tomorrow?'. . . Visas are required and you have to register with the medical council. Barbara, and all at Remedy Consultants sought out various job offers and I picked the job and location I wanted. They then guided me through the process of applying for work visas and medical council registration. I definitely wouldn't have got through the process without them. Thanks a million.
Dr J Brohan – Irish Doctor
I have been very impressed with the entire service from Remedy. My emails were always answered quickly and efficiently by Esther, and she was always very patient when I was much less efficient in my responses! Everything was sorted out with very little effort or stress on my behalf. The personal touches - meeting us at the airport and the drinks evening - were also very welcome and appreciated. I would not hesitate to recommend Remedy to my collegues. Dr S Clarke – UK Doc MBBCH (hons)
