This is a new opportunity offered by Frimley Health NHS Trust for a Consultant Physician in Orthogeriatric Medicine. The post has been funded jointly by Medical and Orthopaedic Directorates.

The post holder will not be on the general medical on call or look after general medical patients but will work closely with the orthopaedic trauma consultants to provide joint peri-and post-operative care for elderly trauma patients admitted to dedicated trauma and orthopaedic wards. Each trauma ward currently has dedicated F1 and F2 junior doctors who will support the medical management of patients. Junior orthopaedic surgeons, trauma nurse practitioners and trauma coordinators, who coordinate the trauma operating lists in liaison with the anaesthetists and trauma surgeons, provide additional support. The orthogeriatric service is at the moment provided by a dedicated consultant with the support of 1 senior clinical fellow, 1-2 GP trainees and 1 core clinical fellow. 

Please refer to full job description for further information.
