Gastroenterology
This service is covered medically by four gastroenterologists, two Registrars and one house officer. The Registrar positions are filled by a mix of Registrars training in Gastroenterology and Medical Registrars gaining experience in Gastroenterology as part of a general medical training programme.
Most patients are managed on an out-patient basis with only modest numbers admitted for more detailed investigations and management. An in-patient consultative service is provided. These positions provide excellent opportunities for experience in clinical Gastroenterology.
Regular meetings are held for radiology, histopathology, case reviews and journal type reviews.
