Headington, United Kingdom Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Full time

The Oxford Renal unit is seeking to appoint a dynamic and enthusiastic doctor to join the Oxford Renal team. The vacancy is for a clinical fellow (equivalent to Specialist Trainee or registrar grade) at the Churchill Hospital from 1st May 2023 (12 months), or part thereof.

Junior doctors in this post rotate between the acute renal and transplant wards, outpatient dialysis units, and the renal day-case unit. They contribute to a 1:10 out of hours rota at the Churchill Hospital.

The fellow will be expected to take part in induction and education sessions as arranged, which will include post-clinic discussions and formal meetings. Doctors are expected to perform audit and are encouraged to undertake clinical research projects.

The Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is a large university teaching hospital with over 1500 beds that offers a comprehensive range of acute services. The renal and transplant services are based at the Churchill Hospital. They comprise a 16-bed renal ward, 16 bed transplant ward, 12 bed day-case unit, 39 haemodialysis stations, and PD and specialist nursing teams. The Oxford Kidney Unit has 5 network units which are based in High Wycombe, Stoke Mandeville, Swindon, Milton Keynes and Banbury.

The Oxford Kidney Unit has twenty consultant nephrologists (11 NHS and 9 academic) who manage a large program of 450 haemodialysis and 60 peritoneal dialysis patients. The unit manages Acute Kidney Injury referrals for a large population, including referrals from Milton Keynes, Swindon, and High Wycombe. There are satellite dialysis units and clinics in these centres.

The Oxford Transplant Centre performs over 250 transplants per year, including kidney, pancreas, islet cell, small bowel, and modified multi-visceral. We are the largest pancreas transplant centre in Europe and one of four supra-regional centres performing bowel transplants. The department consists of eight consultant surgeons with additional expertise in vascular access surgery, machine perfusion and organ retrieval.

The renal and transplant service at the Oxford Kidney Unit has ten specialist trainees, including two IMT3 and two clinical fellows. All doctors contribute to the running of the service, rotating through different areas of the specialty: covering inpatients on the renal and transplant wards, the dialysis units, and the day-case unit. Registrars perform renal biopsies and provide vascular access (including temporary and tunnelled dialysis lines). There is close consultant supervision.

There is a full-shift, resident, 1:10 on-call rota which includes cover of renal inpatients, acute renal referrals, and membership of the medical emergency team on the Churchill site overnight.
