Reviews of Core Medical Group (Travel Agency)

Steven Griswold

I am current employee at CoreMedical Group in the QA department. I have been here for a year and I love and look forward to coming to work every single day. The atmosphere is just so positive and inviting. The people whether you know them or not are so kind and welcoming to you. We are hard workers, but we have a lot of fun as well. Core really takes care of their employees and values each and every single one of them. I would recommend CoreMedical Group to anyone and everyone. I look forward to many many more years with this awesome company.

I am very satisfied with Core and recommend them to anyone. I have the best recruiter, Charles Hernandez, always takes care of any concern, responds back on nights and weekends, and advocates for his employees at all times. He really means it when he says he’s got my back and will always fix any problem. Anyone new to travel needs to be well educated and not get caught up in the lingo-just ask what they are paying you an hour-the taxable, non taxable, per diem stuff IS confusing. Is this on purpose? I don’t know. There is a yearly employee earned trip fully paid for by the company, Club Core Med. In 2020 we are going to an all inclusive resort in Mexico. Last year it was the Dominican Republic and was supposed to be there again. Many employees were concerned and wrote the owner Aram who responded personally and Core did change the venue. This showed me Core really does care about the safety and happiness of their employees. Travel nursing is not easy and takes a very flexible and confident person to be successful. Perhaps the terrible reviews are from people not entirely suited for the job.

Awesome company - everyone who works here is caring and professional with their nurses best interests in mind!

Don't/never have worked for them, but I wouldn't consider this company based on the responses already posted! I'm never about slamming a company, but reading the public replies and being in this line of work for over 20 years, I'd be very wary of ever saying "yes,"if I was a good PT!

Love Coremedical Group. I’ve been working with my recruiter Derek Leo for a little over 3 years now, and it has been a great experience. Whenever I’m having an issue with an assignment, Derek has got my back, and is always there to offer advice, address any issues promptly, professionally, and yes, talk me down from the ledge on rare occasions; and the Club CoreMed trips are awesome!!!!!

I am the ADON of a Skilled Nursing Facility in Globe, Az and Brandon Jackson and his team at Core Medical have been wonderful at helping us with our staffing issues. Brandon is always keeping in touch with his travel nurses and my staff regarding that both our needs and the nurses's needs are met. Brandon is amazing at what he does, and is quick to answer any questions we might have. Core Medical Group have been amazing for the past year that I've had the pleasure to work with.

We have have been working with Core Medical Group for years. We have always been satisfied with there service. I want to especially thank Amanda Caron for working with us on our account over the last several months

I feel like the negative reviews are from some competitor agency. I completed 3 contracts as an Occupational Therapist through Core and they were nothing if not professional and fair. I haven’t traveled in a while but if I do it will be through Core. Oh btw they are also the only agency that does not Harass me via email, text or phone

My wife has worked at Core for a little over a year now and loves it so far. The stories she brings home make it seem like s great atmosphere where they look to hire the right people and take care of them. When our second son was born, administration sent us a very thoughtful gift (koala bear rocking horse). It really seems that they care about organizational culture and my wife is happy with the switch!

I have not only used Core Medical Group twice, but the same employee within the company. Ryan Demeritt was very professional, listened to my needs and was great to work with. It was refreshing to work with someone you can trust, especially if you are moving over a thousand miles. If I ever need them again, I will not hesitate, and I would highly recommend Core Medical Group.

I’m about to start my first contract as an LPN. I have had multiple options and interviews. They are CONSTANTLY making sure we are on top of the process, that I’m happy with how things are progressing, and that I don’t have any questions or concerns. I feel like the negative reviews are one of two things...1. A competitive travel agency (I’ve had some reach out to me and harass me by phone/email/Facebook so I honestly wouldn’t be surprised) or 2. THAT health care worker...you know the one...you’ve worked with them...they are always right, don’t listen to others, etc. You have to go into travel with an open mind, can-do attitude, and flexibility in my opinion. It’s not going to be for everyone (just like the profession they chose unfortunately). I’ve been super pleased and impressed with all of the staff there. Especially Sarah who was my original recruiter but she accepted a position that better suited her education so I can’t blame her for that but they still keep her updated as to what’s going on with me and I think that says a lot! Thank you Core Medical for helping me achieve my dream of travel nursing!

This agency is low paying, I have upwards of $1600 more a month offered from multiple other agencies. They lie so much and when you ask them why they have no valid reason as to why. They hate being asked about their miscommunication and the first thing they do when you stand up for yourself is throw you under any bus they can. They do not in anyway have their nurses backs. I would advise against anyone using this agency. Please, do yourself a favor and find anyone else.

I also had a bad experience , they sent over my profile to a hospital full well knowing the director was going away for almost a month . They jerked me around with excuses , Full well knowing I was one month without Salary. They totally stink as human beings no heart . I never traveled again !

This is on behalf of 3 fellow travelers who wish to remain anonymous due to core and their malicious behaviors displayed while they were working for them. Those "reviews" are not by "jealous competitors." You're obviously blinded to believe that. My friend went from Core to another agency quoted by both agencies prior to accepting the position and the opposing agency offered my friend $600 more a week TAKE HOME. Shop. Around. Trust me core does low ball. I've seen it first hand. My other friends husband actually LEFT traveling to go home and work because core made him despise traveling. He gave up experiences because they were that awful. He plans on going back but it will never again be with core. His words "you couldn't pay me a million an hour to do that again." Because I know this company and am familiar with their deception and manipulation I would say "they can't find them in their database" because they don't want the truth out there. If you do choose to work for them (God help you) avoid Lori, the recruiter. Never heard of a more miserable person in my life. In traveling, transparency is key. Go ahead, tell these fine people the percentage you take. The endless amount of vacation days you have. You guys ready to be honest yet? I can always go to the media too.

I have been working at Core as a Payroll Coordinator for just over 2 years and it is one of the greatest jobs I've ever had! Love working here!

Rhonda Canton

I have never dealt with a more incompetent nursing agency in my years of traveling. They low ball your pay packages so much. They have been nothing but rude, liars, and demeaning. I am appalled at the complete and utter mistreatment I have endured with this agency. I have loved travel nursing but they have made me hate it in the 5 months I was with them. I never, in my life felt more targeted by an agency for no reason other than doing my job and asking questions. I will never come back to this agency and I can't believe the rating they have received. Completely deceptive and completely unreliable. Shame on you Core!

Joanne Haines

I can not believe what I am reading. I have been a nurse for 37 years. Have been traveling for over 2 years now, and have been treated not only professionally, but would recommend this company, and have to any one. Every assignment has been awesome, with support from all departments. I probably should not say this, but if you had a bad experience, maybe look inward instead of placing blame on core.
