Summary
The Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Trust (RNOH) is the leading orthopaedic specialist hospital in the UK and ranked amongst the 10 best worldwide for delivering expert comprehensive, innovative and patient focused neuromusculoskeletal health care, ranging from acute spinal injury to complex orthopaedic oncology. RNOH doesn’t only provide expert and safe musculoskeletal care but also collaborates closely with various academic units across the UK (our principal partner being UCL) in order to stay at the forefront of academic research and allow translation of new ideas in the fields of bioengineering and biotechnology to clinical practice in order to ultimately optimize patient care and experience. We strongly believe that we can only maintain our status as the best orthopaedic specialist hospital in the UK by continuously innovating and improving.
The RNOH is appointing to the fellowship post in Sarcoma for January 2026.
This post will be for 6 months on a fixed term contract. Applicants should have completed core surgical training and have experience in elective orthopaedics, and ideally an interest in Sarcoma along with hip and knee arthroplasty surgery.
The Fellow’s post will provide exposure to all aspects of the management of patients with bone and soft tissue tumours, primary and revision hip and knee arthroplasty and complex limb reconstruction. There will be ample opportunity to assist and gain experience with the full range of extremity and pelvic surgical cases. Attendance at sarcoma and arthroplasty MDT meetings is expected as well as involvement in the diagnostic pathway for tumour patients. The Fellow will be allocated to one of the three sub teams within the unit and have the opportunity to rotate. It is anticipated that the fellow will be post FRCS (orth) or equivalent and close to CCT or equivalent with a primary interest in the above areas of expertise. They will work closely with all members of the bone tumour and joint reconstruction units and be expected to deliver high quality care.
