An exciting opportunity has arisen for a candidate interested in a 12‑month fixed‑term locum consultant haematologist post at Barking, Havering & Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust.
Responsibilities
You will provide a weekly new patient clinic, a weekly lymphoma clinic and a weekly AML/MDS clinic. You would be expected to attend the weekly malignant MDT. There is the opportunity to develop your own interest.

During weeks off ward cover, the dedicated full ward‑round time will be allocated SPA time.
You will have designated time to support the laboratory, the primary care advice and guidance which are also undertaken on a rolling rota.
There is an active local interest in maintaining diagnostics expertise through in‑house reporting of bone marrows and weekly morphology review meetings. If you wish, you can have the opportunity to participate in this diagnostic service, although this is not mandatory. There is a dedicated in‑house haematological histopathologist. Barts Health provide the SIHMDS.
You will be expected to attend and participate in the weekly morphology meeting and core medical trainee and specialist haematology trainee teaching programme in addition to being a clinical supervisor for junior doctors. You will have the opportunity to be an educational supervisor if you wish.
You will be expected to participate in the on‑call rota (overnight weekday and weekends) on a 1:6 cover.
