Barking Havering and Redbridge University Trust is seeking to appoint one full time Specialty Doctor to support this busy and innovative department. The post holder would cover outpatient clinics, urology diagnostics and adhoc independent theatre lists. The unit is dynamic and undergoing significant change and improvement with scope for further input and contribution. Cancer services have been centralised at UCLH and The Royal Free Hospital, and it is necessary to improve the efficiency and quality of diagnostic and emergency care pathways. We have a developing cancer diagnostic service with a busy MDT and specialised MDT. The new appointee will be joining a group of 11 consultants as well as 1 Associate Specialist, 1 Specialty Doctors, 4 senior clinical fellows, 3 Registrars, and 10 Junior clinical fellows. There is also a specialty doctor with cross site and teaching commitments. There are 7 Nurse Specialists based at King George Hospital. The successful candidate will be expected to work closely with colleagues and managers with the aim of developing pathways for smooth movement of the patients throughout their pathway We’re an organisation that is getting better and better. We were the most improved Trust in England for A&E performance in 2023/24; we’re no longer in special measures; and Matthew Trainer, our Chief Executive, has been named the top CEO by the Health Service Journal. Our improvements are driven by a determination to deliver care we’re proud of and that our patients are happy with. Many of our 8,000 staff – who come from 146 different countries - live in the three diverse London boroughs we serve and the majority are from black, Asian and minority ethnic groups. More than 400 of them are on apprenticeship programmes and we’re proud to be a London Living Wage employer. We operate from two main sites - King George Hospital (KGH) in Goodmayes and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We have two of the busiest emergency departments in London – more than 300,000 people visited our A&Es in 2023. Patients across northeast London are benefitting from two new state of the art theatres at KGH and our Community Diagnostic Centres at Barking Community Hospital and St George’s Health and Wellbeing Hub will significantly increase the number of scans that can be carried out. We’re looking forward to introducing an electronic patient record next year. This will mean the records of any patient visiting one of the seven hospitals run by BHRUT and Barts Health will be accessible to the clinical teams. It’ll make things easier for staff and will be better for patients.
