The department has regular teaching sessions and is committed to further education to assist with your career progression. We have associated teaching hospital status with the University of Sheffield and strong links with the South Yorkshire Orthopaedic Training programme since the Education Training Programme Director works here.
In joining this Trauma and Orthopaedic Service at The Rotherham NHS Foundation Trust, you will be working with a nationally acclaimed training unit which produces and retains some of the best trained and qualified Surgeons in the country.
As this is a Registrar post, at least a year's experience of T&O post-foundation training along with MRCS is essential.
