We are pleased to be able to advertise for one part time GPwSI in dermatology with an interest in skin cancer for one year in the first instance to join our experienced skin cancer team in Oxford.
This is a new post.
Located within the Thames Valley, Oxford's skin cancer service is a recognised centre of excellence with one of the highest incidences of melanoma in the UK.
We have state of the art surgical, diagnostic and laboratory facilities in a purpose-built unit.
We have excellent on-site links with plastic surgery and oncology with a centralised head and neck skin cancer service.
With over 3,000 skin cancers treated in our university department each year, we are keen to recruit a colleague who will relish the opportunity of working and teaching in this inspirational environment.
Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust is one of the largest NHS teaching trusts in the country.
It provides a wide range of general and specialist clinical services and is a base for medical education, training, and research.
Junior medical support and training: The Dermatology service participates in the Oxford Training Rotation, which consists of specialist training posts shared between several hospitals (The Churchill & John Radcliffe Hospitals, Oxford, the Horton Hospital, Banbury, and the Royal Berkshire Hospital, Reading).
At any one time, we have at least 4-6 registrars based in Oxford, each of which spend approximately 24 months based in the department.
Out-patient clinics: The clinical work plan will typically involve sessions in out-patient clinic settings to support the skin cancer service.
The Dermatology Service sees more than 48,000 patients including new referrals, follow-up consultations, and clinical procedures including laser and surgery.
Clinics normally consist of lists staffed by a consultant with a clinical training or research registrar ± ST1-2.
Nurse-led clinics and surgical lists are well-established and consultant supervised.
There is a well-established email advice service providing clinical advice by consultants with a 24-48 hour response time.
Ward rounds & in-patient cover: All in-patients are admitted under medical teams at the JR, Churchill, and Horton sites, and dermatology specialist support is provided where needed.
There are no acute general medicine on-call duties, but the dermatology consultants take part in supervising the non-resident registrar on-call rota currently on a 1 in 10 basis.
The Churchill Hospital has a resident general medical hospital-at-night ST1-2 rota shared between departments.
