Based at The Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital, this fellowship provides an excellent higher training opportunity in all aspects of Limb Reconstruction in a world renowned tertiary referral centre for orthopaedic surgery. This will include experience with management of internal and external fixation, circular frames, lengthening nails and management of bone infection.

The successful candidate will experience the full range of adult and paediatric limb reconstruction surgery. The placement provides excellent opportunities for clinical and professional development. Throughout the duration of the fellowship the candidate will be expected to engage in the planning and delivery of services as well in research and service improvement projects.

This post does not attract an NTN, but is suitable for a candidate who has passed the FRCS (Tr & Orth) or equivalent, and is looking for subspecialty experience in complex elective limb reconstruction, management of congenital and acquired deformity and bone infection. Applicants must have full GMC registration with a licence to practice prior to the start of employment.

The fellowship is for 12 months, starting in April of each year. The job is usually advertised on NHS jobs in March, a year in advance, but enquiries are welcomed throughout the year.

Informal discussions are encouraged
