Summary
A Vacancy at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.
Chelsea & Westminster’s Robotic Gynaecology programme is a vanguard programme for benign robotic gynaecological surgery.

We train, teach, work and play together. The fellow will be responsible end-to-end for the care of patients in the endometriosis pathway in concert with the rest of the fellows and consultants. Our established fellow training commences with inculturation in the team, the programme and operating room set up. Within four months we expect the fellow to have completed our technical training and simulation programme, and be undertaking console-surgeon work.

We are committed to equal opportunities and believe that diversity drives innovation and excellence. As part of our dedication to equity, we actively welcome applications from individuals from the global majority, veterans and underrepresented communities.
