Our Story

Founded by doctors
who've been there.

MentorMed was founded by Dr Ruth Young (FACEM), Dr Thom Francis (ED Doctor), and Dr Nimai Etheridge (FACRRM) — three doctors who've spent years locuming across Australia and understand exactly what it takes to build a sustainable, fulfilling locum career.

Our mission is to connect highly qualified and adventurous healthcare professionals with rewarding locum opportunities in some of Australia's most underserved and picturesque locales. We believe that everyone, regardless of their geographic location, should have access to top-tier healthcare services.

"We seek to provide top quality medical care to areas of workforce need using our unique insight into the needs of doctors, patients and health services."
