This will be for 6 months with a view to this job being advertised as a substantive job.

We have recently moved to a two-tier gynaecology rota to enable support for new colleagues. In the fullness of time the ‘Kingston’ rota will be for gynae-oncologists with different roles and responsibilities to the generalist rota. We have recently appointed 3 emergency gynaecology consultants to support acute attendances, ward admissions and emergency theatre lists.

The appointee will be required to share Postgraduate teaching of pre and post membership trainees in Obstetrics & Gynaecology and engage in the regional teaching programme.
