Consultant in Pancreatobiliary medicine

Come and join a friendly, supportive, and dynamic team of over 30 consultant gastroenterologists who strive for excellence. We are delighted to offer opportunities for 2 ambitious luminal gastroenterology consultants. Subspecialty interest in IBD is a priority, but applications from colleagues with interests in other aspects of luminal gastroenterology, including nutrition or upper gastrointestinal tract disease, would also be welcome.

These posts have been created to expand the team and to replace a consultant who has taken up a prestigious national role. The posts are for 10 PAs, including 1.5 core SPA. Ward cover for subspecialty luminal gastroenterology is overseen by a consultant of the week, currently planned to be 1:7 weeks. Out-of-hours on-call contributions include a GI bleed service for MRI (currently a 1:17 rota). Weekend on-call work includes daily gastroenterology ward rounds. You would participate in regular MDTs, clinics, and endoscopy according to your interests and development needs.

The IBD service at MFT cares for over 10,000 patients diagnosed with IBD, with over 1,200 on advanced therapies. The service participates in UK IBD benchmarking and quality improvement projects, aligning with the national UK IBD agenda.
