There has never been a better time to join Whipps Cross University Hospital. This is a large, friendly District General Hospital located on the edge of Epping Forest in Leytonstone, undergoing regeneration and renewal. We are a centre for undergraduate and postgraduate teaching, attracting students from London teaching hospitals as well as overseas, and we offer an excellent training and work environment with support for doctors wishing to undertake research or further medical qualifications. We are known for caring for patients with a fascinating spectrum of medical conditions, providing an excellent opportunity to develop clinical skills in preparation for the MRCP examination. Trainees are supported by a well-organised Medical Education Centre and candidates for Clinical Fellow posts receive study leave time allowance and teaching opportunities comparable to formal training posts.
The Department of General Medicine at Whipps Cross Hospital offers a comprehensive range of services to the local population of Waltham Forest, Western Redbridge and the neighbouring part of South West Essex. The department sees a mix of pathology and complex psycho-social issues. The local population includes a significant level of older patients with frailty and dementia.
The inpatient service comprises two general medicine wards, Birch & Blackthorn. Each ward has 2 ST1-2 level junior doctors with an ST3+ higher trainee staffing it daily in line with the RCP Safe Medical Staffing Guidelines.
