Locum Consultant in Dermatology

Applications are invited for the post of Locum Consultant Dermatologist at Whittington Health NHS Trust. This is a fixed term post comprising of 8 programmed activities at Whittington Hospital with clinics in paediatric dermatology, general dermatology, skin cancer screening, dermatological surgery, with the opportunity to substitute a programmed activity for teledermatology (adult/paediatric) depending on service need.

The department of Dermatology is a core service within the Integrated Clinical Service Unit of Surgery & Cancer (ICSU). It serves the populations of Haringey, Islington and Camden directly, and receives referrals from across London through the NHS Choose and Book service. It manages approximately 10,000 patient attendances annually.

Whittington Health serves a richly diverse population and works hard to ensure that all our services are fair and equally accessible to everyone. Nowhere is this more obvious than in the way we look after our staff. We aim to employ a workforce which is as representative as possible of this population, so we are open to the value of differences in age, disability, gender, marital status, pregnancy and maternity, race, sexual orientation, and religion or belief. The Trust believes that as a public sector organisation we have an obligation to have recruitment, training, promotion and other formal employment policies and procedures that are sensitive to these differences. We think that by doing so, we are better able to treat our patients as well as being a better place to work.
