O Grady Peyton and Preferred Healthcare

Published

Can anyone tell me if either of these companies are affiliated or owned by other traveling companies. (Ex: I have heard that American Mobile is afilliated in some way with Medical Express.) Are either O Grady Peyton or Preferred Healthcare affiliated, owned, sister or parent companies with other companies? And does anyone recommend one of these over the other? If so, Why? And thank you in advance for any information you can provide.

I'm on my 4th assignment with O'Grady-Peyton, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. My recruiter is great, paychecks/reimbursements have not been a problem, and housing has been outstanding. It's the right agency for me!:D

I'm looking into Cross COuntry Travel Corp (CCTC) and am glad to hear that it is not affiliated with AMN. I have read so many postings that have had bad encounters with AMN and do not recommend them. However, I am also learning that the biggest variable in the mix to having a positive experience is about the 'recruiter' you have...they appear to single handedly define a good experience or bad experience regardless the specific company. I think of it like a school....any school has it's good teachers and bad teachers.

I worked for OGP when I first came over to USA. I will NEVER work for them again. I had a bad situation with my unit manager arise (turned out to be a case of bad communication) and when I asked for help from my recruiter I was told, and I quote "we won't do anything to jeopardize our contract with the hospital" Well, gee thanks soo much!! I worked it out on my own and never looked back.
