We are looking for a passionate and forward thinking Anaesthetist to join our team at Pride.
The anaesthetists are involved in the day-to-day clinical tasks of anaesthetising and assisting other departments with analgesia and critical care and after-hours emergency cover. The Anaesthesia team runs weekly tutorials and journal clubs, and the hospital has a weekly clinical club on many different subjects and offers frequent in-house CPD. Our team consists of two Diplomates (one ECVAA and one ACVAA), and two residency-trained clinicians. The department is supported by a team of experienced theatre nurses and we provide a high standard of care through a great working relationship with other departments.
