Frimley Health Foundation Trust is one of the largest acute Trusts in the South. Divided into two main sites, we require a fy2/fy3 level doctor to join us on the Frimley Hospital site in the busy ENT department for a year. This is a full-time role with weekend and nights but is fully compliant with the EWTD.

The ENT Department has 5 full-time consultants (one military) and 2 part-time consultants, covering the whole range of sub-specialty interests. As well as the usual general workload there are specialist otology, rhinology, voice, allergy and head and neck clinics and theatres. The non-consultant staff complement includes one specialty doctor, 3 registrars and 5 junior grades. The department prides itself on its friendly and inclusive work philosophy, with regular meetings and teaching sessions. While this post is not recognised by the Deanery, it will provide high quality training in ENT, with opportunities to take an active part in monthly audit sessions, simulation, teaching and theatre resulting in appropriate career progression. This role should appeal to either a trainee interested in a Surgical and/or ENT career or to a trainee interested in General Practice who would like to develop their skills prior to/after GP training.

As above, we are looking for an enthusiastic engaging candidate who prides themselves in working in a team, providing excellent clinical care for our patients with outstanding communication skills. No prior experience is necessary as we are happy to teach you any skills required but previous experience is also useful or desirable.
