Wishaw, North Lanarkshire, United Kingdom NHS Scotland Full time

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Consultant Physician to join our team at University Hospital Wishaw. The successful candidate will be responsible for providing high-quality patient care and leading the diabetes and endocrinology service. The job plan includes 2 PA's approved for academic research per week, 7 PA's for direct clinical care, and 1 for supporting professional activities. The successful applicant will be encouraged and supported to develop research interests and specialty/sub-specialty interests to complement the existing diabetes and endocrinology specialist services. The diabetes and endocrinology department is supported by 2 WTE diabetes specialist nurses, diabetes dietitians, and specialist podiatrists, as well as 2 endocrine nurse specialists who work across the three Lanarkshire hospitals. We have recently expanded our non-medical workforce by employing and training an extended scope nurse practitioner in diabetes. Community diabetes nurse specialists also run formal clinics where they prescribe and/or advise primary care on prescribing. The diabetes and endocrinology team work closely with our colleagues across the three Lanarkshire sites and have established MDT services which are supported by enthusiastic colleagues in other specialties. These include diabetes technology MDT's, endocrinology MDT supported by the biochemistry department, weekly diabetic foot MDT with input from infectious diseases/OPAT, vascular surgeons and technicians, orthopaedics, podiatry and orthotics, and gastroparesis MDT with gastroenterology, dietetic and upper GI surgical colleagues. We provide general endocrinology clinics with planned investigations supported by our endocrine nurse specialists and medical day bed unit. There are diabetes subspecialty clinics including young adult diabetes, diabetes transition, diabetic foot, type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, and insulin pump/technology. Wishaw is the Lanarkshire centre for the diabetes obstetric service with two outpatient diabetes-obstetric clinics per week. The two academic research sessions will be supported by colleagues in the NHS Lanarkshire Research and Development (R&D) department which has developed and expanded significantly over recent years. NHS Lanarkshire's R&D strategy for 2023-2026 aims to maximise the level of high-quality, NHS ethics-approved health and care research being carried out in NHS Lanarkshire for the benefit of our patients, staff, and NHS Lanarkshire as a whole. The successful applicant will be supported by consultant colleagues with research interests, research nurses, R&D management, and there are dedicated clinical research rooms onsite at UHW. The successful candidate will be supported and expected to develop their own research portfolio and act as local Principal Investigator in funded research studies. The hospital has close affiliations with the Universities of Glasgow, Strathclyde, Edinburgh, and Dundee. The medical department is committed to undergraduate medical training and postgraduate training of Foundation Doctors, Core and Higher Specialist medical trainees, GP Trainees, and Acute Care Common Stem trainees. There is an active post-graduate medical education programme run at UHW throughout the academic year. The successful candidate will have a commitment to the acute medical receiving rota and in-patient care supporting the current team of consultants, specialty, and trainee doctors on the diabetes and endocrinology ward. Applicants must have full registration and a License to Practice with the GMC and be eligible for inclusion in the GMC's Specialist Register in diabetes and endocrinology and General Medicine or be within 6 months of award of CCT at the time of interview. The University of Glasgow enjoys close links with NHS Lanarkshire, and our medical students benefit greatly from the excellent educational opportunities provided by the board in both primary and secondary care. Those who are or who will be involved in teaching our students, or in any other activity which involves a contribution to teaching, research, or scholarship within the University are eligible for honorary status at the University of Glasgow.
