Cape Medical Services

We are Cape Medical Services, a clinically led UK specialist provider of resident doctor services founded in 1999 by Dr Stephen Agoston, who qualified at the University of Cape Town with an MBCHB. Our managing director brings extensive experience working as a Resident Medical Officer across both the NHS and private healthcare sectors, complementing his 1995 MBA qualification and prior tenure at a leading UK NHS locum agency. For over two decades, we have established ourselves as one of the foremost providers of resident doctors across the United Kingdom. We are the only service provider in the sector currently offering a 24/7 clinical support helpline and full resident doctor revalidation support. Our reputation among client hospitals and employed resident doctors rests on our status as the most clinically-driven specialist resident doctor provider in the market. We pride ourselves on unrivalled market innovation, consistently developing new solutions to meet the evolving needs of healthcare providers and medical professionals.

All resident doctors we employ receive free, tailored career briefings as part of our commitment to supporting their professional growth. These briefings include full CV updating, forward career planning, and active assistance in securing suitable RMO posts following the completion of their assignments with us. We are fully committed to supporting the NHSs net zero and sustainability ambitions, having completed the NHS Evergreen Sustainable Supplier Assessment. We adhere strictly to the principles of the Modern Slavery Act 2015, operating as an equal-opportunities employer with robust policies to eliminate modern slavery and human trafficking in our operations and supply chains. Our transparent approach to governance, sustainability and clinical quality underpins the trust placed in us by clients and medical staff alike.
