We are seeking an enthusiastic Clinical Fellow in Oncology to join our team at Torbay. This post is to complement upcoming workforce changes and develop new models of care across the Peninsula. This is a 12-month fixed term position working 10PA’s per week.
It is expected that the individual will join the senior medical team in running outpatient clinics, support patients having day case cancer treatment and contribute to supporting unplanned care for cancer patients with the acute oncology team.
There will be opportunities to work closely with the clinical research team offering clinical trial opportunities to our patients. The post holder will be expected to support the teaching and training of the South West peninsula medical students. This post should offer interested candidates a wider understanding of the delivery of modern day, ambulatory cancer care and an insight into how new personalised therapies are being used.
