This is a hugely exciting opportunity for ambitious and focussed individuals looking to develop and further their careers in an outstanding organisation. Most of our fellows progress to consultant positions within the UK and abroad.
We are a leading NHS organisation both nationally and internationally, and offer PG Doctors the opportunity to develop in our range of outstanding subspecialist areas.
