Clinical Teaching Fellow, General Surgery

Dumfries, United Kingdom NHS Scotland Full time

It is anticipated that 5 sessions per week will be devoted to teaching with the majority of this time dedicated to Glasgow University’s Surgical students. However, some of this time should be used flexibly to support students in other specialties, for example medicine, anaesthetics or emergency medicine, and from other universities, namely St Andrews, Dundee and Edinburgh.

The remaining 5 sessions will cover clinical duties on inpatient surgical wards. Responsibilities would include supporting foundation doctors, assessing acutely unwell patients, managing medical co-morbidities in surgical patients and liaising with the senior surgical team.

It is anticipated that development time will be taken whilst the students are on holiday.

Dumfries teaches Glasgow students in their 3rd, 4th and 5th year, Edinburgh students in their 5th and 6th year and ScotGEM students in their 2nd, 3rd and 4th years (ScotGEM is a 4 year postgraduate degree run by St Andrews and Dundee that is based mainly in primary care with secondary care ‘bursts’).

Our teaching programmes are highly rated by our students whose feedback places us at or near the top of Scotland’s teaching league tables.

NHS Dumfries and Galloway serves a population of approximately 148,500 within a large geographical area of about 2,400 square miles. Dumfries and Galloway stretches from Langholm in the East to Drummore in the West, and from Kirkconnel and Carsphairn in the North down to Sandyhills on the Solway Coast. The Health Board currently employs around 4500 staff excluding GPs and Dentists.

The new Dumfries and Galloway Royal Infirmary, which opened in 2017, is a 344 bed state of the art hospital based in Dumfries. It is the main hospital for the region providing a wide range of inpatient and outpatient health services. The Galloway Community Hospital serves Stranraer and the west of the region; this is an intermediate unit providing maternity services, as well as medical & surgical beds. Midpark Hospital provides inpatient facilities for mental health patients.

Dumfries and Galloway is a beautiful and mostly undiscovered part of Scotland. This post would suit a doctor who enjoys walking, running, cycling, mountain biking and other outdoor activities. We are only a 90 minute drive away from the Lake District and we are close enough to Glasgow, Edinburgh and Newcastle for those who also appreciate the bright lights and city life.
