An exciting opportunity has arisen for an exceptional individual to join the dynamic gastroenterology team at ELHT. The successful candidate will join other experienced substantive consultants and will take a particular interest in specialist hepatobiliary work. ELHT is a Tertiary centre for hepatobiliary surgery and receives a high volume of external referrals for specialist hepatobiliary work, including interventional endoscopy.

The post holder will work in a ward in an on/off ward system on rotation with the other Consultants. When on the wards there will be daily consultant ward rounds with reduced elective activity and increased elective sessions when off the ward. Annual leave and study leave should be taken during the off-ward periods.

There are 1.25 PA commitments to a 1:10 weekend rota for acute upper GI bleeding. The On Call duties also include review of selected patients on Gastroenterology wards in addition to some input to the Medical Assessment Unit
