The East of Scotland Breast Team seeks a substantive Consultant Breast Surgeon to join our enthusiastic multidisciplinary team of four Consultant Breast Surgeons to replace a departing colleague. We provide a specialist breast service on two sites at Ninewells Hospital, Dundee and Perth Royal Infirmary, Perth. The Breast Service is responsible for managing patients with symptomatic disease and those with impalpable disease in conjunction with the East of Scotland Breast Screening service based at Ninewells Hospital. The unit manages around 500 new breast cancer diagnoses each year. The indicative job plan is 10 sessions (8 DCC: 2 SPA) but candidates wishing to explore flexible/ part-time working are welcome to apply. It is expected the successful candidate will provide a surgical service for the diagnosis and treatment of breast disease especially for cancer patients, with experience of Oncoplastic breast surgery being strongly desirable. There is no general surgery component to this post but the post does include cover of “on call” for breast cases. This post will provide ample opportunity to develop teaching and research interests due to close links with Dundee University Medical School, the renowned Surgical Skills Centre and the new Clinical Research Centre based within the grounds of Ninewells Hospital. The breast unit is the UK’s leading centre for fluorescent- guided breast surgery with pivotal innovation and research associated with this. An academic affiliation with the University of Dundee is on offer with the post developing a leading role in the medical school’s curriculum. Informal enquiries are welcomed by contacting the Breast Team: Information on clinical and service aspects should be directed to: Mr Vassilis Pitsinis Consultant Oncoplastic Breast Surgeon & Clinical Governance Lead for the Breast Unit (Vasileios.pitsinis@nhs.scot); for information on facilities, contractual aspects and non-clinical aspects please contact either Ms Fiona Hogg, Clinical Lead for Breast and Plastic Surgery (Fiona.Hogg4@nhs.scot), or Mrs Tracey Williams, Clinical Care Group Manager Specialist Surgery (tracey.williams1@nhs.scot).
