Eastern Health
Eastern Health is one of Melbourne’s largest public health services. We provide a range of emergency, surgical, medical and general healthcare services and have a proud history of serving a diverse community.
Our Employee Value Proposition is “Being a part of Eastern Health means belonging to a welcoming team of healthcare experts”.
This statement aligns with our promise to our communities, patients, consumers and staff that we will be HEALTHIER TOGETHER. Bolder than a vision for the future, our promise calls us to action. We know that working together is the only way we can achieve what is necessary for a healthier future.
About the role
Applications are sought at Box Hill Hospital for the advanced bariatric surgery Fellowship position. This position provides exposure in the order of 150-200 cases with a high primary operator rate within a well-established bariatric unit. The surgical experience incorporates sleeve, band, bypass, duodenal switch and revisional surgery as well as opportunities to be involved in robotic surgery. The Fellow will be involved in ongoing research interests through the unit as well as participating in the emergency general surgery on call roster. A portion of the experience is through private assisting although the majority is in the public sector.
