Participating in the South Island Neurosurgery Service
• Fixed term - 1 year, full-time
Applications are invited from registered Medical Practitioners who hold the relevant qualifications and experience to join us, the Southern District Health Board in a 1 year fixed term appointment, to commence as soon as possible.
The South Island Regional Neurosurgical Service was established in 2011 and functions as a single service, delivered from two sites, these being Christchurch and Dunedin. You will be based on the Dunedin Hospital site and together with one hospital Neurosurgeon and one academic Neurosurgeon in Dunedin and five Neurosurgeons in Christchurch, you will form a regional service under the governance of a separate Governance Board.
Neurosurgery Services have a proud history in the provision of care in Dunedin, and this is an exciting opportunity to be a member of this regional service in supportive hospital and community environments.
Dunedin Hospital is a 350-bed teaching and training institution. It is closely associated with the Dunedin School of Medicine, the University of Otago and is a Royal Australian & New Zealand College of Surgeons Integrated Training Program site. The Otago Medical School offers undergraduate training and all sub-specialities are represented in the Southern District Health Board. Dunedin offers a unique and attractive lifestyle with the benefits of working in a tertiary referral centre, in a small Neurosurgical Unit that will operate as part of a larger regional service. The position includes provision of continuing medical education opportunities.
Dunedin is a wonderful little city with a big town feel and well-known for its southern hospitality. If you’re considering a move down South, feel free to come and talk to us about the job, the good schools, the University of Otago and the recreational potential which Dunedin and its surrounds possess.
