Overview
A Vacancy at University Hospitals of Derby and Burton NHS Foundation Trust.
We would like to offer an opportunity for an enthusiastic Consultant Radiologist who wish to develop their careers in our department’s traditionally friendly, harmonious and supportive environment.
This is a substantive, full time appointment to support the Imaging services across UHDB. The post is based at the UHDB, mainly split between two major sites with acute care facilities (RDH and QHB).
Following expansion of our services associated with our successful Community Diagnostic Centres, we are looking to appoint a Consultant Radiologist, in General Body imaging with a subspeciality in Uroradiology and Uroradiology intervention.
The appointed candidate will work with a team of established specialist radiologists providing diagnostic imaging expertise in Radiology.
The University Hospitals of Derby and Burton NHS Foundation Trust have 54 Consultant Radiologists (part and full time).
In addition, we have 18 Specialty Registrars on rotation from Nottingham and Leicester. The appointed consultant is expected to cover general reporting in addition to their sub-speciality work and participate on the diagnostic on call rota at the Royal Derby Hospital. The on-call work will be supported by a large cross site team of 12 reporting radiographers reporting plain film and MSK MRI
