Description

Applications are welcomed for a consultant post in Otolaryngology in a trust with a wide case mix in a spectacular part of the UK.

The successful applicant will join a team of dedicated ENT surgeons working in harmony to provide excellent patient care. Areas of special interests will be welcomed, particularly head & neck & otology.

On call duties will be 1 in 5 on call. There is the expectation of attendance at the monthly ENT meetings incorporating governance, morbidity and mortality and education.
