Post-CCT Fellow Position - Hip and Knee Arthroplasty
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Post-CCT fellow position, specialising in hip and knee arthroplasty, based at the Kent and Medway Orthopaedic Centre.
About the Role
This post is aimed at a surgeon who is post or peri-CCT, has completed their Trauma & Orthopaedic training, and has passed the FRCS (Tr & Orth) final examination. The candidate should be planning a career in Hip or Knee surgery with an interest in Arthroplasty. The successful applicant will work closely with two of the Lower Limb Arthroplasty Surgeons, will spend some time in theatre with the other Hip & Knee Surgeons, and in time will also have the opportunity to perform independent operating lists once deemed competent and approved by their Clinical Supervisors. Parallel operating lists will allow for independent Fellow operating but with some level of supervision. The Fellow will attend Elective Hip & Knee Clinics, seeing new referrals, and will also participate in Specialty Trauma lists. The successful candidate will join the middle-grade rota covering general Orthopaedic trauma on a 1:18 rota.
