Summary
Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust is looking for a dynamic Specialist Surgeon with specialist interest in trauma surgery. This is a permanent Specialist Orthopaedic post attracting 10 PAs. Elective surgery is carried out at Wycombe Hospital. There is a dedicated ward for elective orthopaedics in addition to a day surgery unit. The trauma service is based at Stoke Mandeville Hospital. The hospital has a designated Trauma Unit and provides acute surgical care to a population of 500,000. All trauma is centralised on the hot site and this post will be working alongside a dedicated team of nurses, junior doctors, therapists and ortho-geriatricians to provide a first class, consultant led service. Two consultants manage the trauma service for a week rotating every 6 weeks, and this post will be working closely alongside a consultant colleague. There is an excellent musculoskeletal radiology support with 24 hour CT scanning. The Trust has the required arrangements in place to ensure that all surgeons have an annual appraisal with a trained appraiser and support surgeons going through the revalidation process. Further to this, the Trust offers a mentorship to all new consultants and the department would support the new consultant to identify an appropriate mentor.
