I have been with this agency for 3 years and I must say they are the best agency so far. Their professionalism and the fact that they always have job available when my long contracts expire makes it even the more reason I love them.
Anton my recruitment manager is awesome too.

TOTAL SUPPORT RECEIVED REGULARLY

I am a permanent Locum staff. I have had professional association with many Agencies but candidly, my experience with Athona Agency (especially with Emily Bongiorno - my Relationship Consultant) was unrivalled. She secured the LTP for me without much ado.

Athona treated me like a bona-fide member of their noble organisation. I had no fear pouring my mind out with them whenever I needed to.

My weekly pay was never defaulted and without hassles of calling to remind them.

The staff are polite and receptive. Though I have never been to their office or ever had any direct/ face to face contact with any of them, but each time I call them, I was always treated with respect.
I love Athona!
I love Emily and her "gang"
I love you all.
I remain with Athona until I am aged and unable to make myself to work again.
Athona, you have my back!

Christopher Churley is helpful

Christopher Churley is helpful, prompt in dealing with queries regarding bookings. Not judgemental and vindictive when there is a need for the cancellations of shifts. He’s open and approachable

Having worked for Athona for a year now…

Having worked for Athona for a year now I have found my experience with them completely faultless. They are very supportive, and I have found that working with Chris C he has always been a helping hand when working together. One of the best consultants at Athona, I know that I am able to speak about anything with him and he will find a solution around any issues that arise. You’re in good hands with having a consultant like Chris C.

Athona 5 stars easy !! Never had to look for another agency

First started with athona back in 2015, Taken care of by Tan, stephen, and now Anton for the last 4-5 years, never left me wanting or looking for another agency and im so comfortable i now just want to continue with them until i hopefully retire early. Athona and anton in particular have always taken what i say or request seriously and that has made my life and job a lot easier. Also many thanks to keoni, & rebecca who work with anton.

Would recommend as a locum agency to any doctors

Anton and the rest of the team at Athona were great at quickly finding me a longer term locum post at my preferred specialty and location. Anton was very easily contactable and provided suitable answers to any questions I had prior to starting and during my placement. Thank you
