The Royal Orthopaedic Hospital Oncology Service (ROHOS) was founded by Rodney Sneath in the 1980s as the hospital became one of two national referral centres for bone tumours. The hospital received national funding in 1986 for the investigation and management of primary bone tumours treated with endo-prosthetic replacements. The number of referrals significantly increased following that and the unit expanded to its current
workforce of eight consultants and two plastic surgeons along with a nurse consultant. The unit now sees greater than 200 primary bone tumours and 270 soft tissue sarcomas as well as dealing with many cases of benign musculoskeletal tumours. The unit now receives approximately 4000 bone and soft tissue referrals per year. The Oncology team is made up of eight consultants, six clinical fellows, two registrars, a nurse consultant, Macmillan specialist nurses, MDT coordinators, patient liaison officers and administrative staff.

The Royal Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is one of the largest specialist orthopaedic units in Europe. We offer planned orthopaedic surgery to people locally, nationally and internationally.

Our Trust is a very special hospital; big enough to deliver world class services and small enough to offer exceptional patient and staff experience. We offer a working experience unique in the West Midlands and we're always on the lookout for passionate people to join our award-winning team.
