Applications are invited from enthusiastic, motivated and committed individuals to join our friendly and dynamic team within the Gastroenterology department, primarily based at Ipswich Hospital.

The General Surgery and Gastroenterology Clinical Delivery Group (CDG) has speciality level clinical leadership, one Clinical Lead per specialty at each ESNEFT site. The service is supported by its own specialty level General Manager and Matron.

The Department of Gastroenterology works as a sub-department within the Surgery and Anaesthetics Division which incorporates upper gastrointestinal and colorectal surgery as well as other surgical specialties.

The gastroenterology consultants work within a multi-disciplinary team, with access to modern endoscopy facilities and equipment. The aim of the department is to maintain an efficient and friendly service for our local population. The department promotes and develops gastroenterology services in light of rapidly evolving and changing technology.

An Enhanced Relocation package may be available for the right candidate.

Consultant Gastroenterology Luminal IBD - 1 (pagetiger.com)

We have a simple philosophy: Time Matters. Time matters for our patients, their families and our staff. By focusing on time, we can remove unnecessary stress and frustration – giving our patients a better experience and to make sure you have more time to care and make the most of your skills.

Each gastroenterologist spends 5 weeks looking after all the medical gastroenterology patients on a designated GI ward. Two ward rounds are undertaken per week when on the wards.

When off the wards, the ward round sessions may be utilised for extra service provision such as an extra clinic and/or an extra endoscopy list dependent on the service needs at that time.

There is no general medical on-call commitment in this post.

When not covering the ward, the other five gastroenterologists participate in the GI bleeding rota and triage service. The triage consultant will have no commitments in the mornings Monday to Friday to enable them to review any GI referrals from other specialties. They will scope most of the GI bleeds in an acute bleeding slot in endoscopy between 8am to 9am,seven days a week , and there is an afternoon bleed slot accommodated within the afternoon lists. GI bleeds occurring out-of-hours will be scoped in theatre, with support from an on-call endoscopy nurse. Interventional radiology is available on-site.

The on call gastroenterologist is designated to deal with acute GI bleeders only; it is not envisaged that they will need to do any out of hours ward rounds but will review sick gastroenterology patients on Saturday and Sunday on the gastro ward. All out of hours acute GI bleeding patients are managed by the admitting team and they are the responsibility of the admitting physician or surgeon

East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust (ESNEFT) provides hospital and community health care . We serve a wide geographical area with a population approaching 800,000 residents. We deliver care services from two main hospitals in Colchester and Ipswich, six community hospitals, high street clinics and in patients’ own homes.

At Ipswich Hospital

We would like you to help us provide the best care and experience for the communities we serve . You can find out more about us onour website.

We are committed to being a great place to work, and great place to train and a great place to receive care. As a large organisation we offer exciting opportunities for development, innovation, research, education and training.

The successful candidate will work as a Consultant in Gastroenterology with a sub speciality interest in luminal and IBD gastroenterology. Outpatient/Day case investigations are facilitated by a modern Endoscopy Unit with 2 nurse endoscopists and the development of 2 more is in place. We have 3 screening lists a week, capsule endoscopy, ERCP and EUS. There is a Urea Breath testing service for Helicobacter pylori.

The Department of Diagnostic imaging provides a comprehensive range of diagnostic multi-slice CT scanners and MRI scanners as well as providing a wide range of interventional services. The Department of Nuclear Medicine offers a comprehensive range of radio nucleotide investigations.

The ideal candidate will have wide experience in the management of gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary emergencies and will have a subspeciality luminal /IBD interest. They will also need to be fully proficient in diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy including colonoscopy. The team actively encourage the development of a specialist interest, thus improving current service provision and supporting service expansion.

It is envisaged that the successful appointee will work with the existing 5 full time gastroenterologists on GI Triage, the GI ward and provide a 1 in 6 on-call GI bleeding rota, caring for all gastroenterology in-patients. The rotation includes one week every 6 weeks, as the GI consultant on-call for acute gastrointestinal bleeding.

This includes a daily 8am to 9am endoscopy slot to endoscope acute gastrointestinal bleeders and a daily morning GI triage round (Mon-Fri) and a weekend ward review of gastroenterology patients to allow immediate specialist input to acute hospital admissions and also see ward referrals. This rotation between all the GI consultants enables the consultants, when they are off any ward commitments, to provide extra service lists for clinics and endoscopy and develop subspecialty interests.

Hepatology services are currently led by Dr Abdul Mohsen. The service is actively supported by colleagues from Addenbrooke’s Hospital with one of their Consultant Hepatologists, Dr Bill Griffiths, doing a combined post-transplant clinic in Ipswich. Both Hepatitis B and C patients are actively treated within the Trust and there is also an active HEP C outreach service which supports the local prison population. The hepatology service has a fibroscan clinic.
