NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde is one of the UK’s larger providers of NHS Healthcare. We have vacancies for 4 post-CCT fellows in Trauma & Orthopaedics. The posts are available from August 2024 for a period of 6-12 months.

We serve a population of 1.2 million covering 8 local authority areas, which includes the City of Glasgow, as well as incorporating both urban and rural areas from East Dunbartonshire to Inverclyde.

The Queen Elizabeth University Hospital (QEUH) in Glasgow is one of the largest hospitals in Europe. There are 38 consultants associated with the unit performing a wide range of orthopaedic procedures. This includes, upper and lower limb arthroplasty, revision arthroplasty, elective limb reconstruction, young adult hip surgery (including pelvic osteotomies), brachial plexus surgery, anterior and posterior degenerative spinal surgery, adult spinal reconstruction surgery and a complete range of trauma surgery including pelvic fracture fixation. In addition, we have a close association with the Beatson West of Scotland Cancer Centre providing support in the management of metastatic bone disease and haematological cancers. We have been operational as the Major Trauma Centre for the West of Scotland since 2021. The MTC overs 2.7 million people, and sees > 60% of all major trauma in Scotland. We admit 1300-1500 new trauma cases per year via the MTC, in addition to general orthopaedic trauma.

We have vacancies for 4 post-CCT fellowships from August 2024. These fellowships can be for a period of 6 or 12 months. In addition to great clinical experience, we would expect our fellows to take a lead in research and present 2 research projects per 12 months with at least one being published. Fellows will be involved in both elective and trauma, including on-call. The current rota is full shift, occupied by 22 middle-grade staff. Each fellow’s role will reflect their seniority and they will be expected to show excellent leadership & management skills.

We routinely perform definitive circular ring fixation of plateau, pilon and open tibial fractures.
