Job description
Job responsibilities
Leeds Teaching Hospitals is appointing one interventional cardiology consultant post with a specialist interest in coronary intervention. This is a post created to replace a retiring colleague. The appointee will be based at the Yorkshire Heart Centre (on the Leeds General Infirmary site). The appointee will be on the on-call rota for coronary intervention including primary PCI and will be responsible for assessment and management of in-patients with acute coronary syndromes and out-patients with ischaemic heart disease/chest pain in the cardiology unit at Leeds General Infirmary.
The appointee will contribute to the delivery and development of complex coronary intervention in Leeds and to enhance service and reputation of the centre nationally and internationally.
The appointee will participate in the existing out-of-hours coronary intervention rota, on-call 1 weekday night every 5 weeks, and 1 weekend (Friday/Sunday) in 10. In addition to PPCI, out-of-hours on-call activity will expand to include non-STEMI patients. In-hours there is a 1 week in 9 rota for acute intervention (Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm). The appointee will join a team of 10 interventional cardiologists responsible for the assessment and management of ACS patients on the wards.
There is a separate consultant on call rota for general cardiology.
There are currently 33 consultant cardiologists working part or full-time in Leeds. All consultants are based at the Yorkshire Heart Centre on the Leeds General Infirmary site. There are currently 10 consultants (9 NHS, 1 University) delivering the interventional and adult structural programme at Leeds. The planned post is to replace a retiring NHS colleague.
There are seven full time cath labs at the Yorkshire Heart Centre (YHC), currently nearing completion of a high specification refurbishment. The Yorkshire Heart Centre provides a PPCI service to Leeds and West Yorkshire currently delivering 1100 PPCI procedures annually currently led by Dr Jonathan Blaxill. The YHC is the regional lead for TAVI and delivers procedures annually. The YHC as a single centre delivers the highest number of PPCI and TAVI procedures nationally. There is a strong research base within interventional cardiology.
There are active Teaching and Research links with the Leeds School of Medicine and the University of Leeds, both well situated on adjacent sites.
