Reference: 236-SUR-02-CON-L-26-A
Job summary
Our thriving and dynamic Gastroenterology department is based at Oldham, Fairfield and Rochdale, and is part of the Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust (NCA).
This is a unique and exciting time to join an NHS service that is focused on delivering the best healthcare services to our local population, demonstrated by recent investment in an award winning Community Diagnostic Centre in Oldham (CDC), away from the acute site.
This state of the art modular build has PET-CT (to be upgraded to one of the first digital PET CT scanners in the country), MR, CT, Ultrasound and physiological testing. It has been the focus of national attention, visited by the Prime Minister, Professor Sir Mike Richards & the National Clinical Director for Elective care. It recently won two HSJ Partnership awards and has featured in National news articles about diagnostics.
In Autumn 2024 the CDC will be enhanced further by a co-located 3 room endoscopy unit with clinical rooms and on-site decontamination. Our ambition at the CDC is to transform the way that we traditionally deliver healthcare and to explore new and innovative delivery models that reflect the needs of both our staff and our patients. There cannot be a better time to join our team.
We have an award winning Tertiary Inflammatory Bowel Disease Centre, led by Professor J.K.Limdi, recognised nationally and internationally for clinical services and research.

Alongside the CDC, there are 3 endoscopy units across Oldham, Fairfield & Rochdale sites, making this one of the largest endoscopy services in the country. The Endoscopy service offers NHS Bowel Cancer screening colonoscopy, ERCP, HPB, EUS, advanced Lower GI EMR/ ESD.
The non-elective inpatient services are centralised on The Royal Oldham Hospital site, the gastroenterology team provide gastroenterology in-reach and outpatients at the 3 sites. There is an excellent, long established GI physiology department.
