We have invaluable support from a team of specialist nurses based both in our trust and in the community.

We invite applications for consultants in cardiology with a specialist interest and formal training in CMR (Cardiac Magnetic Resonance). An interest in an additional non-invasive subspecialty, or general medicine would also be welcomed.

Our vision is to deliver patient centred, accessible and integrated services, as seamlessly as possible with primary care. With 11 Coronary Care and 26 Cardiology beds, new diagnostic facilities, and access to a full range of non-invasive and invasive cardiac facilities our team has access to exceptional, modern facilities as well as general imaging, including TTE and TOE, CTCA, CMRI (including stress MR) and Interventional radiology services. We have a fully established bradycardia pacing, complex device, and PCI service (excluding PPCI provided in the Tertiary centre). We have an established Nurse-led heart failure service with community integration.
