Consultant in Orthopaedic Spinal Surgery (Paediatric)

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join our internationally acclaimed Spinal Surgery Team at the Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. We are looking for a full-time Consultant Orthopaedic Spinal Surgeon (Paediatric). The successful applicant will be working in a team of 9 consultants, including academic, regional, and neurosurgical colleagues. The post will focus on the provision of surgery for Paediatric patients, but also will have an element in the provision of adult elective and emergency spinal surgery for the population of the Thames Valley region. This will involve inpatient and day case surgery, outpatient clinics, and currently a 1 in 9 on call commitment as part of a 24/7 on call service.

Clinical

The Trust comprises four hospitals - the John Radcliffe Hospital, Churchill Hospital and Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre in Headington and the Horton General Hospital in Banbury.

Our values, standards and behaviours define the quality of clinical care we offer and the professional relationships we make with our patients, colleagues and the wider community. We call this Delivering Compassionate Excellence and its focus is on our values of compassion, respect, learning, delivery, improvement and excellence. These values put patients at the heart of what we do and underpin the quality healthcare we would like for ourselves or a member of our family. Watch how we set out to deliver compassionate excellence via the OUH YouTube channel.

The Oxford Spinal Surgery Department provides a regional and supra-regional spinal surgery service. The department has strong links with the University of Oxford. There is research in the fields of paediatric deformity, adult deformity, spinal tumours and basic sciences with a nationally recognised back pain rehabilitation programme. This is a major spinal unit with all sub-specialities represented and with more than 3,000 operative procedures per annum. We have access to a neuroscience unit and level 3 Adult and Paediatric ITU. Our beds are housed in a purpose built Neurosciences Ward along with colleagues in neurosurgery and neurology, with further beds for less complex patients available in the Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre. Paediatric patients are looked after in the Oxford Children’s Hospital.

The Spinal Surgery Service forms part of the Neurosciences Directorate, which also hosts the Departments of Neurosurgery, Neurology, Neuro-Intensive Care, Neurophysiology and Neuropathology.

The post holder will undertake general and emergency spinal surgery and will have experience in both adult and paediatric spinal surgery. The Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre hosts the OUH Bone Infection Unit (BIU) and an expectation of the post will be to take a lead in spinal infections, including surgical site infections, and to work closely with the BIU and with infection control.

The department of spinal surgery is undergoing further development of our service delivery model with a renewed emphasis on integration with the neurosurgery department to provide high quality single access service delivery. Quality and training form an essential part of this vision. Going forward, changes are envisaged to team structures and the working model in order to optimise efficiency, clinical quality and training standards.
