CONSULTANT OPHTHALMOLOGIST Special Interest in High Volume Cataract Surgery & Anterior Segment Ophthalmology Department, Ninewells Hospital An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Consultant Ophthalmologist to join our forward-looking and innovative clinical team. The Department of Ophthalmology based at Ninewells Hospital is well established within the region and organisation. As well as delivering Ophthalmology services within a university and teaching hospital environment, a wide range of sub specialty interests have been developed to national and international acclaim. The successful applicant will play a major role in a truly innovative and internationally recognised, high volume cataract service and support our existing corneal service offering all aspects of corneal services and surgeries. Other sub-specialty interests to complement the needs of the department will be considered. Dundee has pioneered a model of High Volume (HV) cataract surgery delivery that has been picked up for commendation by RCOphth president, Professor Burton, and recognised by Scottish Government, cabinet secretary for health (2024). We are looking for a candidate with a track record of comfortably delivering 12 cataracts per 4 hour session, happy to train STs and cascade this skill as a sub-speciality interest in its own right, but likely combining this with Cornea and anterior segment skills. Currently we have the highest single site of ISBCS in the UK NHS, and have pioneered direct referral to listing for >90% in the HV service. Confidence with and experience of this would be requisite in the successful candidate. Scotland has around 40,000 on waiting lists for cataract. Scotland has a different healthcare model to England and Wales, which is not tariff based. Motivation has to be intrinsic and informed by a concern for the public health good of delivering this service at scale. Ideas to develop supra-regional provision of care to neighbouring health boards as benefiting the Tayside service may be viable in future. Our listing time from primary care has been reduced to 11 days for the HV referral stream, using digital systems, which accounts for about half the department's throughput. This post supports the doubling of the HV services, essential to turn around the social and holistic consequences of visual disability from cataract. Ideas for service re-design and improvement would of course be welcome. A higher degree in Public Health would be welcome but not essential. As a teaching hospital leading in this area, this provides ample space for an academic career publishing in QIP and HSR; care delivery and quality papers. The timetable will have adequate time for dealing with virtual pre-operative 'ward rounds', and referral screening. This post is available on a full-time basis and part-time applicants will be considered. You must be registered with the General Medical Council and hold a Licence to Practice. Informal enquiries are welcomed by: Dr John Ellis, Consultant Ophthalmologist & Cataract Lead or Dr Stewart Gillan Clinical Lead 660111 ext. 32713 Hours of work are: 40 hours Please quote reference number - 207728 Closing date for receipt of completed application forms - 07/03/2025 Interviews are scheduled to take place on - 21/03/2025 Applicants must be on the Specialist Register or be within 6 months of the anticipated award of CCT or CESR (CP) at the date of interview for the post. Anticipated interview date is 21/03/2025. Short-listed applicants will be contacted by email. Please check your emails regularly, including your junk/spam folder.

Wisbech, Cambridgeshire
CONSULTANT OPHTHALMOLOGIST Special Interest in High Volume Cataract Surgery & Anterior Segment Ophthalmology Department, Ninewells Hospital An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Consultant Ophthalmologist to join our forward-looking and innovative clinical team. The Department of Ophthalmology based at Ninewells Hospital is well established within the region and organisation. As well as delivering Ophthalmology services within a university and teaching hospital environment, a wide range of sub specialty interests have been developed to national and international acclaim. The successful applicant will play a major role in a truly innovative and internationally recognised, high volume cataract service and support our existing corneal service offering all aspects of corneal services and surgeries. Other sub-specialty interests to complement the needs of the department will be considered. Dundee has pioneered a model of High Volume (HV) cataract surgery delivery that has been picked up for commendation by RCOphth president, Professor Burton, and recognised by Scottish Government, cabinet secretary for health (2024). We are looking for a candidate with a track record of comfortably delivering 12 cataracts per 4 hour session, happy to train STs and cascade this skill as a sub-specialty interest in its own right, but likely combining this with Cornea and anterior segment skills. Currently we have the highest single site of ISBCS in the UK NHS, and have pioneered direct referral to listing for >90% in the HV service. Confidence with and experience of this would be requisite in the successful candidate. Scotland has around 40,000 on waiting lists for cataract. Scotland has a different healthcare model to England and Wales, which is not tariff based. Motivation has to be intrinsic and informed by a concern for the public health good of delivering this service at scale. Ideas to develop supra-regional provision of care to neighbouring health boards as benefiting the Tayside service may be viable in future. Our listing time from primary care has been reduced to 11 days for the HV referral stream, using digital systems, which accounts for about half the departments throughput. This post supports the doubling of the HV services, essential to turn around the social and holistic consequences of visual disability from cataract. Ideas for service re-design and improvement would of course be welcome. A higher degree in Public Health would be welcome but not essential. As a teaching hospital leading in this area, this provides ample space for an academic career publishing in QIP and HSR; care delivery and quality papers. The timetable will have adequate time for dealing with virtual pre-operative 'ward rounds', and referral screening. This post is available on a full-time basis and part-time applicants will be considered. You must be registered with the General Medical Council and hold a Licence to Practice. Informal enquiries are welcomed by: Dr John Ellis, Consultant Ophthalmologist & Cataract Lead or Dr Stewart Gillan Clinical Lead . 660111 ext. 32713. Hours of work are: 40 hours Please quote reference number - 207728 Closing date for receipt of completed application forms - 07/03/2025 Interviews are scheduled to take place on - 21/03/2025 Applicants must be on the Specialist Register or be within 6 months of the anticipated award of CCT or CESR (CP) at the date of interview for the post. Anticipated interview date is 21/03/2025. Short-listed applicants will be contacted by email. Please check your emails regularly, including your junk/spam folder.

Glasgow, Renfrewshire
NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde is one of the largest healthcare systems in the UK employing around 40,000 staff in a wide range of clinical and non-clinical professions and job roles. We deliver acute hospital, primary, community and mental health care services to a population of over 1.15 million and a wider population of 2.2 million when our regional and national services are included. Position: Consultant Radiologist with an interest in Thoracic Imaging. This will be based within the North Sector but may include duties within other hospitals in Greater Glasgow and Clyde. It is advertised as a full-time position although candidates who require to work part-time will be considered. Interview Date: 06/02/2025 Clinical Commitments The candidate will be expected to contribute strongly to the general work of the department, in particular the acute service. They will be proficient in all forms of general and oncological imaging. A sub-specialist interest in thoracic imaging and percutaneous thoracic intervention including lung biopsy are required to complement the team of thoracic radiologists. An interest in cardiac imaging is also welcomed. The North Sector has a large respiratory service treating a wide range of chest diseases. The North Glasgow Lung Cancer Service is one of the biggest lung cancer services in the UK. There is also an active interstitial lung disease service. MDT meetings are encouraged and up to one session per week is allocated to this duty. The successful candidate will participate in the lung cancer MDT. A recent increase in lymph node sampling requests from this MDT would make US guided FNA/core biopsy of cervical lymph nodes a useful adjunct skill for the candidate to possess. Further aspects of the job are negotiable and to some extent will be tailored to the abilities and interests of the successful applicant. There is an essential requirement to be proficient in emergency and trauma radiology for emergency daytime and on-call purposes. The successful candidate will participate in the diagnostic out-of-hours system on a sector basis. All out-of-hours activity will be undertaken on the basis of the terms and conditions set out in the consultant contract (Scotland). The sector operates a compliant Specialist Registrar on-call rota, as laid out under the European Working Time Directive. The basic contract will be for a 10 PA consultant contract, comprising 9 PAs in Direct Clinical Care (DCC) and 1 core SPA for CPD, audit, clinical governance, appraisal, revalidation job planning, internal routine communication, and management meetings. As a major teaching and research contributor, Imaging would normally expect to allocate additional SPA time for activities related to undergraduate education, educational supervision of trainee medical staff, research, and other activities. Precise allocation of SPA time and associated objectives will be agreed with the successful applicant and will be reviewed at annual job planning. Appropriate technical support and equipment, office accommodation, and clerical support are provided at each site for the Consultants. The exact timetable will be subject to negotiation and current service needs - it may include additional sessions depending on subspecialty interest and will include a commitment to MDT provision. 0.5 DCC per week is awarded for flexible reporting cover to take account of ad hoc emergencies, orphan lists, over-runs due to urgent cases, etc. A degree of general flexibility is required in relation to the agreed timetable to meet the exigencies of the service, especially during times of colleagues' absences. SPA allocation will be the subject of post-appointment discussion for activities such as undergraduate and postgraduate medical training which takes place outside direct clinical care, as well as research and/or management. These activities will be specifically and clearly identified and agreed with the candidate and desired by the department. On-Call On call is shared between consultant colleagues. Due to the workload within the sector and working towards seven-day working, two consultants are involved, providing a Saturday and Sunday urgent daytime service. This predominantly involves provision of a busy CT and ultrasound service and ensures rapid turnaround of the acute plain film service. There is a separate Interventional Rota, but there is an expectation that general CT and ultrasound drainage will be covered by the diagnostic consultants where possible. Qualifications At the time of interview, candidates must be eligible for GMC registration and must hold (or be within 6 months of) CCT in Clinical Radiology or equivalent. For more information, please contact: Dr. Ross MacDuff, Clinical director Details on how to contact the Recruitment Service can be found within the Candidate Information Packs. NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde- NHS Scotland encourages applications from all sections of the community. We promote a culture of inclusion across the organisation and are proud of the diverse workforce we have.
