We are looking for a motivated, enthusiastic, and team-orientated Podiatrist to join our small rural team providing podiatric interventions to the population of Shetland.

We are seeking an individual with excellent communication skills and the ability to work as a team player. The Podiatry Service is a very busy department and the successful candidate will need to demonstrate the ability to organise workloads in a timely and efficient manner.
