Warwick, United Kingdom South Warwickshire University NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Job summary

We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic and dynamic colleague to support the Gastroenterology service at South Warwickshire NHS Foundation Trust.

The Gastroenterology department currently comprises 6 whole time consultants and two working less than full time.

Main duties of the job

In-patient Gastroenterology services are based on Castle ward, a 25 bedded General Medical/Gastroenterology ward. Castle has a heavy bias towards Gastroenterology. The ward operates a "self-admission" policy for patients known to the unit with specific gastrointestinal problems (IBD, chronic liver disease, GI malignancy in particular).

Out-patient gastroenterology is spread between the Warwick and Stratford sites with a progressive move towards specialisation ( IBD clinic, hepatology, viral hepatitis, two-week wait, coeliac/nutrition clinic). We have a continuing commitment to developing patient education programmes in IBD and chronic liver disease.

The medical gastroenterology service is supported by 2 SpR, 1 IMT2, 1 FY2 and 2 FY1 doctors.

About us

Surrounded by a collection of picturesque towns and villages, there is always a lot to see and do across the County. Numerous sport and leisure venues, theatres, parks and great shopping facilities make Warwickshire an idyllic place to work and live.

As well as enjoying where you work, we want all our staff to lead happy and healthy lives. That's why we offer many benefits to support this, such as flexible working opportunities, and onsite subsidised restaurant at our hospitals in Warwick and Leamington Spa, as well as a number of recognition awards.
