We deliver a full range of district hospital services in a variety of locations.

In addition to the services delivered in our hospitals, we provide outpatient and therapy services in community settings and in patients’ homes.

We provide specialist services to people across the UK and internationally. We are one of only two centres in the UK treating pseudomyxoma peritonei (a rare form of abdominal cancer) and we are leaders in the field of tertiary liver cancer and colorectal cancer.
The trust employs more than 9,000 staff and has a turnover of over £500 million a year. As a Foundation Trust, we are directly accountable to our members through the governors. The Council of Governors represent the interests of their constituencies and influence the future plans of the Foundation Trust.

Job overview
This is an exciting opportunity to join an enthusiastic, dynamic and motivated Respiratory team at the Royal Hampshire County Hospital. This is a full time, substantive respiratory consultant post with additional general internal medicine on-call responsibility. The appointed candidate will be expected to work cohesively alongside the existing Consultant team, supporting the severe asthma service and work alongside the established sleep disordered breathing team.

Successful applicants will work alongside the current severe asthma team to expand existing services and optimize care delivery for asthma patients.
This is an exciting time to join our department as we further develop our ambitions for 7-day respiratory Consultant cover, high-care services and ambulatory working models.
