This is an excellent opportunity to join us and become part of the North West Anglia NHS Foundation Trust. You will have the chance to develop your skills and confidence under the guidance of an inspiring team.

We are looking for a Specialist Grade Doctor to complement our current Dermatology team undertaking sessions at all our three hospital sites Hinchingbrooke Hospital, Peterborough City Hospital and Stamford and Rutland Hospital. All our hospital sites are accessible by road or train within easy commute distance from London, Cambridge, Leicester or Birmingham.

Our main aim is to deliver the best possible care to our local communities working closely with the Community sector and providing support and governance for GPwER and Nursing Specialists in the area.

You will be instrumental in providing a full range of care services at the Secondary care level for Medical Dermatology and skin cancer patients. Regular outpatient clinics, procedure lists and MDT attendance will be incorporated into the job plan with sessions occurring on both sites, supported by the relevant nursing staff.

Cover for urgent inpatient referrals and GP queries during working hours is also anticipated, but there is no formal out-of-hours cover required for this post regularly.

You will provide outpatient clinic and procedure lists across the hospital sites for inflammatory skin disease and skin cancer patients in the adult and paediatric population, actively participating in the skin cancer multidisciplinary team, with regular attendance at the alternate week MDT meetings.
