Overview
The appointee will provide Clinical Genetics service for both children and adults in NWTRGS. For a rare diseases appointee this will probably include prenatal work. A cancer specialist would also be required to attend a number of MDTs. The appointee will need to show flexibility in accordance with the demands of the service and be able to provide both face-to-face and virtual clinic consultations. There may need to be some flexibility on working days in the week.
