Opportunities also will be given to work within a number of different specialties which currently include General Medicine, Rheumatology, Respiratory, Dermatology, Gastroenterology, Immunology, Surgery (General, Colorectal, Vascular and Plastic), and Haematology; the list is not exhaustive.
Exposure to such a broad spectrum of specialties offers the opportunity to acquire many new skills and continually develop learning, supported through a combination of bespoke training and practical on-the-job tuition.
