Our pharmacist prescribers work closely with consultants and the wider MDT to review and prescribe SACTs, ensuring patients receive the highest standard of care.
At OUH, as a major clinical trials centre, we are actively involved in both early and late phase research. We believe every pharmacist role should be research-active, and support your pursuit of opportunities, including the chance to work towards a PhD.
We are happy to hear from B6 pharmacists who are soon to complete their clinical pharmacy diplomas or MSc degrees.
We are proud to provide comprehensive services for patients in Oxfordshire and beyond. With oncology, clinical haematology, BMT unit, palliative care services, private unit, and close links with Cancer Research UK, our centre offers an unrivalled environment for learning, collaboration, and making a real difference for patients.
