We are delighted to invite applications for two CESR Fellow posts in Ophthalmology at University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust. These are exciting training opportunities within a large, forward-looking ophthalmology service, offering structured support and broad subspecialty exposure for doctors wishing to progress via the Certificate of Eligibility for Specialist Registration (CESR) route.

You will participate in all aspects of ophthalmology within the department and will join the Specialist Trainee on-call rota. Weekly timetables vary depending on the subspecialty placement, but typically include a mix of:
•    specialist clinics
•    theatre sessions
•    laser or injection sessions
•    eye casualty
•    admin time
•    weekly teaching

Each fellow will be allocated an Educational Supervisor, and a CESR Lead will be confirmed on appointment. You will be expected to engage with workplace-based assessments, appraisal, clinical supervision and portfolio development in line with CESR requirements.
