Job Description

The Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board welcomes applicants for the post of Specialty Doctor within the Gastroenterology Service at Ysbyty Gwynedd, Bangor.
The post is full time - 10 Sessions per week (plus 3 Additional Program Activity Sessions).
This post is ideal for those seeking a permanent non-consultant role.
Although this post is advertised on a permanent basis, the Gastroenterology department at Ysbyty Gwynedd has gained the reputation for supporting those who want more clinical experience/NHS experience before applying for Specialty training.
The department has also recently provided time and support to our existing doctors during their application for CESR.
Main duties of the job
The Health board is committed to achieving excellence in clinical medicine and we can offer the right candidate:

• Enthusiastic, friendly and supportive staff and environment
• An active and supportive research opportunity
• Access to weekly outpatient and endoscopy sessions
• 2 sessions of SPA
• Ring-fenced time for admin
• An active grand round program and the education centre for ongoing professional development.

If you are interested in this post and have full GMC registration together with MRCP part 1 and 2, we would be delighted to hear from you.
