Plymouth, Plymouth, United Kingdom University Hospitals Plymouth NHS Trust Full time

The pathologists all undertake subspecialist areas of reporting and there is flexibility to accommodate the incumbent of this replacement post in a number, of sub-specialist areas by mutual agreement, depending on the individual's interests and departmental needs.

Renal biopsies, lymphoma, sarcoma, and medical liver biopsies are reported by a limited number of pathologists.

There is currently sub-specialist reporting of most other areas including breast, upper and lower gastrointestinal, urological, thoracic, sarcoma, head & neck, gynae and hepato-pancreatico-biliary resection specimens.


The post holder will be expected to develop areas of subspecialisation and join the relevant reporting teams related to these areas.

Coronial post mortem work is available for interested applicants; however, it is not mandatory.


There may be an opportunity for a mutually agreed re-organisation amongst the present pathologists' current areas of specialist interest to allow the incumbent to become lead pathologist in an area of interest.

Participation in the reporting of some of the following areas would be particularly welcomed:
soft tissue pathology, thoracic pathology, uropathology, gastrointestinal pathology, head and neck pathology, medical liver and/or renal biopsies.


University Hospitals Plymouth is situated within easy reach of central Plymouth, Tavistock, Ivybridge, and the Cornish towns of Saltash, via the Tamar Bridge, and Torpoint via car ferry.

Bordered by the rugged beautiful Dartmoor to the North, fantastic beaches and the South West Coast path to the South, the South Hams to the East and Cornwall to the West, Plymouth is a vibrant waterfront city with a wealth of attractions and activities for everyone to enjoy.
