Summary
UHDB is seeking to recruit a physician who has or would like to develop a sub-specialty interest in the care of patients with diabetes related foot disease. There are opportunities within the role to increase experience in service development, quality improvement and teaching. Opportunities also exist to gain experience within other sub-speciality clinics within UHDB. Success candidates will be provided with a clinical supervisor and provided with a dedicated day a week for quality improvement work. Working alongside a committed team of consultants in diabetes, vascular surgery, orthopaedics, microbiology, specialist podiatrists, orthotists and nurses, the appointed clinical fellow will gain a huge experience in the multidisciplinary complex management of patients with diabetes related foot ulceration, ischaemia and charcot neuro-arthropathy which will set them up extremely well for a future career as a diabetes consultant. The post would suit someone who is a specialty trainee in diabetes and endocrinology who would like out of programme extra experience, someone working towards a CESR application, or someone looking to pursue a career in diabetes and endocrinology but wanting more experience before applying to specialty training posts. UHDB has an excellent national and international reputation for diabetes foot care and has a well-established multidisciplinary service.
