A Vacancy at Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
This is an exciting post for 12 months aimed at a Gastroenterology trainee wishing to garner further specialist experience in Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) delivery in a large teaching hospital Gastrointestinal (GI) unit. The post also comes with the opportunity to do some clinical research (hopefully leading to abstract and paper publication and experience in clinical trials), with time set aside within the job plan to enable this to occur.
The new Royal Liverpool Hospital is home to a IBD Team which historically is known as a centre of excellence for IBD both nationally and internationally.
The successful applicant will spend 12 months within the IBD Team exclusively at the Royal Liverpool Hospital site. The work will focus on service development and delivery with IBD patients. There will be the opportunity for the candidate to register for a higher degree with the University of Liverpool (or another university) subject to progress and/or time built into the job for research, quality improvement and teaching. It is expected that the successful candidate will be able to author or co-author a number of papers or abstract, learn basic research methods and skills and hopefully attend major IBD conferences such as ECCO, DDW and the BSG. There may be an opportunity to be either principal investigator (PI) or co-PI on one or more research studies.
Endoscopy training and surveillance
Depending on the endoscopy experience of the applicant, it is planned to offer at least 2 endoscopy lists per week at the Royal Liverpool or Broadgreen sites. If the applicant is not achieved full JAG colonoscopy accreditation to do independent endoscopy lists, supervised training lists will be provided for the successful applicant with the aim of achieving full accreditation during the fellowship. Additionally, training in dye spray surveillance and advanced polypectomy can be provided once full accreditation has been achieved.

There are a variety of different facets to the IBD service
General IBD clinics
This is an essential part of IBD service as the main IBD clinics run on a Tuesday and Friday and occur either virtually (telephone) or face to face. A successful applicant will be expected to work in both clinics and see unselected patients and discuss and escalate any concerns to the IBD consultant and/or nurses within the Team.
Clinics are extremely busy typically but patients from these clinics can be discussed in IBD MDT on a Friday, Radiology (APEX) MDT on a Monday or Histology MDT (once a month) on a Monday afternoon.
IBD MDT and radiology (APEX)/histology MDTs
These MDT are essential to the learning and development of a successful applicant. IBD MDT occurs every Friday morning and is an important opportunity to discuss complex and challenging cases but also learn about the latest advances and uncertainties in IBD patients. Attendance is mandatory and presentation of cases and implementation of MDT plans is essential.
Similarly, Radiology (APEX) MDT is a mandatory part of the applicants’ duties – so to present and learn from the multiple cases that are presented related to IBD (plus general luminal gastroenterology and hepatology) at this meeting by IBD physicians, nurses, colorectal surgeons and radiologists.
Finally, Histology MDT is a highly recommended opportunity to discuss and learn about histological uncertainties related to IBD. Attendance is mandatory if presenting cases.
