Consultant in Ophthalmology with a Special Interest in Paediatrics

Doncaster & Bassetlaw Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is looking to recruit a motivated Ophthalmology Consultant to join our dedicated and professional multi-disciplined ophthalmic team. We hope to appoint two Consultant Ophthalmologists with an interest in a complimentary sub-specialty within the Service in areas including Pediatric Ophthalmology, Neuro Ophthalmology or Oculoplastic.

Applicants will be expected to have broad general Ophthalmology experience with a proven track record of cataract surgery. 

You will be a highly valued member of the team bringing your expertise and skills to a busy Ophthalmology department.

The appointee will be an addition to the team of 7 Consultants currently in Post. Following this recruitment drive we expect the Consultant Team to be 10.

The service is provided across 3 sites, Doncaster Royal Infirmary, Montagu Hospital in Mexborough and Bassetlaw Hospital.

Main duties of the job

The Ophthalmology service has departments and theatres at three Trust sites (Doncaster, Bassetlaw and Mexborough), but whenever possible split site working within the same day would be avoided. Most consultants would work at Doncaster and any one of the other 2 sites.

Your individual job plan will be reviewed and agreed annually.

The service has an on-call rota. The Consultants are 2nd on call. On-call is classed as Category A and is currently a 1:7 rota, which attracts a 5% on call availability supplement. It is expected to be 1 in 9 when the current phase of recruitment is complete.

The SAS grade has 7 doctors consisting of one Associate specialist, and 6 specialty doctors.

In addition we have 2 specialty trainees (ST4-7) from south Yorkshire deanery. The SAS doctors and Trainees provide the first on call cover at 1:9 rota currently.

The service is committed to a strong training culture. Specialty Doctors rotate through a firm based timetable and have protected theatre sessions. There is regular Consultant led teaching on a Friday afternoon for which SPA time is allotted.

Secretarial support is provided at Bassetlaw Hospital, Montagu Hospital and Doncaster Royal Infirmary.

Doncaster & Bassetlaw NHS FT is one of Yorkshire’s Leading acute trusts, serving a population of more than 420,000 across South Yorkshire, North Nottinghamshire, and the surrounding areas.  Our services are based over three main hospital sites employing over 6,000 colleagues.

As an organisation that supports flexible working, we want to be sure that you can work in a way that is best for us and for our patients, and for you. Speak to us about how we might be able to support a flexible working arrangement. If it works for the service, we will do our best to make it work for you.
