Our clinical fellow posts have been rolled out across the whole of the Medical Division, recognising the importance of combining clinical work and professional development at an early stage of your career. We want to develop and expand these roles to offer exciting professional development opportunities within the field of Emergency Medicine, which in itself is such a broad-based specialty.
