In 2025 Skilled Medical Celebrates 20 Years of Service
The year 2025 marks an important milestone for Skilled Medical as we proudly celebrate 20 years of service in medical recruitment, helping to deliver qualified medical professionals wherever and whenever they are needed.
Since 2005, our mission has remained the same: to deliver the best possible medical recruitment services, helping to ensure communities that need health professionals always have them available. Our professional approach, together with our background in medical services, has helped to set us apart in the medical recruitment field.
As we reflect on the past two decades, the need for reliable medical workforce solutions has never been more critical.
Founded by Dr David Campbell in 2005, Skilled Medical was established to help address workforce shortages and support the continuity of vital medical services throughout Australia.
We have become a trusted leader in medical recruitment, placing thousands of doctors in locum and permanent positions across Australia, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. In 2019 we launched Skilled Nursing, our nursing and midwifery division. While covering metropolitan and country areas, we continue our important focus on supplying health professionals to under served rural, regional, and remote communities.
“We could not have maintained our mission without the dedication and professionalism of the wonderful medical and nursing staff who work through us. They have consistently met challenging work environments in good spirits and worked tirelessly to deliver the best possible patient care. We are extremely proud of them and honour the impact they have made through their years of hard work across Australia,” Dr Campbell said.
“I would also like to thank all our clients for their dedication and for working with Skilled Medical in addressing staffing needs. In essence, through engaging with us they have allowed us to help play our part in promoting better health care in Australia.”
“Skilled Medical’s people, values, and robust systems are at the core of everything we do,” said Dr Campbell. “I would like to thank our wonderful staff - their commitment, care for others and professionalism have made all the difference.”
With medical staff shortages persisting in Australia and worldwide, our experienced recruitment teams remain dedicated to helping hospitals and health services source, screen, and mobilise medical and nursing professionals to help meet their needs.
Looking ahead, Skilled Medical will continue to invest in key areas during 2025 and beyond, including enhancements to our IT systems, new tools to streamline scheduling and workflows, expanded candidate support, strengthening quality and further developing our staff to help them do their best.
Dr Campbell said, “We are extremely grateful to be celebrating Skilled Medical’s 20-year anniversary this year and we look forward to contributing further to health care in the years ahead.”
