About the Role
The General Surgery Unit at MRI is one of the busiest acute hospitals in the UK, serving a population of nearly 1 million patients. The HPB unit is one of the largest in Europe and serves as the HPB provider for Greater Manchester and the vast majority of Lancashire and Cheshire, covering over 3.5 million people. Together with the Colorectal unit, we offer both elective and emergency care in a collaborative manner alongside radiologists, anaesthetists, endoscopists, hepatologists, pancreatologists, pathologists, nutritionists, physiotherapists, and cancer clinical nurse specialists.
Responsibilities
The successful applicant will work with the HPB surgical team, performing approximately:
- 200 liver resections
- 120 pancreatic resections
- 50 complex biliary surgeries per year
There is also a significant workload of benign HPB cases, particularly complicated pancreatitis and gallstone disease. The unit benefits from four deanery registrars and other core and foundation trainees.
Opportunities
For all posts, there is ample opportunity to participate in audits and clinical research, and each department holds regular M&M meetings and MDTs. The successful applicants will also take part in the General Surgery Middle Grade on-call rota, which is 1:16 resident. This role provides a broad, unique, and rich experience in Emergency General Surgery, often with a joint case mix with on-site specialties such as HPB, Major Trauma, Vascular Surgery & Interventional Radiology, Renal & Pancreas Transplant, and Obstetrics & Gynaecology.
