Summary
Consultant Respiratory Physician- Eastbourne District General Hospital
We are an organisation that places importance and pride on being clinically led and prioritise developing clinical leaders. We are looking for an enthusiastic colleague to join our team working to deliver consultant led, efficient, safe, and patient centred care in Respiratory and GIM. We are particularly keen to hear from candidates with an interest in lung cancer to support and lead the Lung Targeted Health Check programme that is being launched April 2024. We also are keen for applicants with an interest in asthma, COPD, EBUS and/or Bronchiectasis. Other interests that compliment those of the existing consultants would also be welcome.
Our department has exciting times ahead with newly refurbished and re-designed respiratory ward providing designated NIV areas with further service developments to include our respiratory virtual ward services and lung cancer screening programme.
The trust is highly regarded for the under and post graduate education it provides and has a state-of-the-art Simulation Suite. Facilities for flexible bronchoscopy and full lung function exist at both acute sites; interventional bronchoscopies and pleural procedures are performed at Eastbourne. We have a tertiary level sleep service and home ventilation service based at Conquest Hospital and excellent thoracic surgery service support based at Guys Hospital.
