You will be assisting in a vast range of procedures which will include flexible sigmoidoscopy, minor dermatological procedures, ophthalmology and vascular dressing clinics, as well as general medical and surgical clinics.

The primary base is Winchester Hospital although you may be required to work individual shifts at one of the other Trust sites if required.
