The department has a strong track record in research with on-going industry funded projects and an in-house arthroplasty joint registry.
In addition to research commitments, there is a clinical role involving supervised and independent operating sessions, and outpatient clinics, forming part of a highly motivated multidisciplinary team. There may be opportunities to supplement the quoted salary with additional elective sessions and on calls as required by the department on an ad hoc basis. The timetable will also allow the post holder to visit other tertiary referral specialist arthroplasty units in order to gain further experience in this field.
