An exciting opportunity to work with Prof Matt Rutter and the Northern Region Endoscopy Group (NREG). The posts are 50% clinical and 50% research. Previous fellows have conducted endoscopy-based research on water-assisted endoscopy, the National Endoscopy Database, patient comfort, post-polypectomy surveillance, quality improvement in polyp detection, complex polyps, endoscopic complications and PCCRC. The posts also offer an excellent opportunity to improve diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopic skills: fellows achieve an average of 1000 procedures a year and highly value this aspect of the post. As a regional training centre we also encourage participation in training/TCT accreditation.

Prospective fellows should anticipate being independent in gastroscopy and independent/close to sign-off for colonoscopy by commencement of the post.

Please contact Matt Rutter to enquire further – we tend to advertise/appoint almost a year in advance so early discussion with Matt is recommended.

There is a general medicine component to this role, and no on-call commitment.
