Australia is a vast country rich in culture and diversity. In no other country can such varieties of climate and geography be found. From the sub-tropical white sandy beaches of coastal Queensland to the beautiful, cool green, rolling hills of Tasmania, Australia offers an uncrowded, unpolluted, modern, prosperous setting to enjoy a medical sabbatical, an overseas elective or a permanent medical career.

Well known as a country of great beauty, wealth and development, Australia remains the most popular destination in the world for medical sabbaticals for doctors from the UK, USA, South Africa, Canada and Ireland.

Australia is divided into seven states which function as one country. Each state has its own unique charms that appeal to different kinds of people, so to assist you in choosing the location for your medical post in Australia, please follow the links below to find a brief description of each state.
