Job overview

Chelsea & Westminster’s Robotic Gynaecology programme is a vanguard programme for benign robotic gynaecological surgery. It is used as a reference site across Europe and beyond for how a NHS hospital high-efficiency robotic total practice programme should deliver for both patients and the public purse.

Our established fellow training commences with inculturation in the team, the programme and operating room set up. Within four months we expect the fellow to have completed our technical training and simulation programme, and be undertaking console-surgeon work.
