Musculoskeletal Clinical Specialist - Foot and Ankle

Are you an experienced, motivated, enthusiastic Specialist Musculoskeletal (MSK) Podiatrist or Physiotherapist with a passion for managing foot and ankle conditions, looking for a new challenge? If so then we would love to talk to you!

Referrals into the Specialist MSK service are from MSK physiotherapy, podiatry teams, FCPs, GP or self-referral. The caseload comprises complex patients with musculoskeletal pain, or those who have not responded to primary care intervention. Advanced clinical reasoning, investigative and analytical skills are required to ensure appropriate investigation are undertaken, and to facilitate decision making regarding most appropriate management options, ensuring delivery of high quality evidence based care.

You will work both independently and alongside a highly experienced team of Specialists, Clinical Leads and MSK Consultants who are key to driving the development of the service. There are opportunities to be involved in Service Improvement, Audit, Research and Quality Improvement. CPD and mentorship is integral to effective service delivery and as well as undertaking a robust competency programme you will have regular workshops/peer support.

You will also actively support junior colleges within the Musculoskeletal Service.

Current vacancies are in the Southampton area although team members will be expected to be able to work across the service geography if required.
