Gastroenterology Trust Registrar – London North West Healthcare NHS Trust
London North West Healthcare NHS Trust is seeking an enthusiastic Gastroenterology Registrar to join a team of Gastroenterologists based at St Mark’s Hospital. The endoscopy unit performs approx. 5,000 GI endoscopies per year, and approx. 2,000 new patients per year are seen in gastroenterology clinics. The Ealing Endoscopy unit is currently in the process of acquiring JAG accreditation as part of its Trust-wide Endoscopy strategy work stream.
This full‑time post would suit a registrar who seeks a challenge in providing excellent Gastroenterology and Hepatology inpatient care, delivering an outpatient service, and developing skills in endoscopy. The post holder will undertake two out‑patient clinics, conduct ward rounds with consultant supervision and have one training endoscopy list per week. The registrar will work on the wards supporting the busy gastroenterology department and will also be attending outpatients’ clinic and endoscopy.
It is suitable for UK and overseas doctors seeking training and clinical experience. At present this is a service post and would be ideal for doctors who need more Gastroenterology and General Internal Medicine experience before applying for a training or research position.
The appointee will be part of the acute gastroenterology service and will join the other two Deanery appointed registrars working in the service. The registrars are supported by a team of two SHOs and three FY1 doctors. The post holder will be allocated an educational supervisor and research opportunities are available and actively encouraged.
Flexibility will be required to meet the needs of the service but, depending on the interests and skills of the successful candidate, appropriate training can be provided in hepatology, nutrition, endoscopy etc. Duties will include responsibility for inpatient ward rounds (with consultant supervision), supporting out‑patient clinics and endoscopy lists.
