The uro-oncology service in Nottingham is delivered by 6 subspecialist urological surgeons including 5 robotic surgeons, currently performing approximately 200 robotic cases per year. The post will comprise 3 full days of operating with experienced robotic surgeons, and will follow a modular training programme towards a primary aim of developing certified competence for independent practice in robotic prostatectomy. There will also be opportunities for exposure to robotic partial nephrectomy, robotic pyeloplasty, robotic cystectomy, laparoscopy nephrectomy and laparoscopic nephroureterectomy. Applicants will be expected to run an independent uro-oncology clinic, participate in a middle grade urology on-call rota, attend a weekly uro-oncology MDT, and enagage in departmental research and training activities.
