Medical Oncologist: upper GI, GI NETs, renal cancer
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Consultant Medical Oncologist in upper GI, GI NETs and renal cancer to join our friendly, forward-looking team of oncologists at The James Cook Cancer Institute caring for patients in Teesside, North Yorkshire and County Durham. This is one of two substantive oncology posts we are currently advertising.
