• Deliver special interest services aligned with service needs, such as menopause, reproductive endocrinology, menstrual health, complex contraception or adolescent gynaecology.
• Provide clinical supervision and support to trainees, GPwSIs and other clinicians within clinical sessions and multidisciplinary team meetings.
• Participate in the Women’s Health Hub MDT, contributing to collaborative decision-making and patient management.
