This 12-month fellowship provides structured, high-volume exposure to ERCP and EUS, delivered within a supportive, tertiary referral environment. The post is ideal for candidates nearing the end of specialist training who are keen to consolidate and extend their procedural, clinical, and academic skills in HPB medicine.

  • Clinical activity typically includes:
  • 3–4 ERCP/EUS training lists per week
  • 2 specialist outpatient clinics per week
  • 2 general endoscopy lists per week

You will also participate in:

  • Benign and malignant pancreatic multidisciplinary team (MDT) meetings
  • The Gastroenterologist of the Week rota
  • Academic and professional development
  • Academic sessions are protected and focused on:
  • Research activity, including a personal research project
