Department of Surgery – Orthopaedics

Alice Springs

One full time vacancy fixed for 5 years is available

Alice Springs Hospital has a catchment area of over 1,000,000 km2. We care for some of the nation's most socially disadvantaged people, with high levels of morbidity and mortality, many with diseases not seen elsewhere in the country

Spectacular national parks surround Alice Springs. The lifestyle is laid back with an emphasis on outdoor activities and the arts. The central desert region of Australia is unique. It is a friendly, welcoming place suited to doctors with a sense of adventure and those interested in indigenous health issues, not generally seen by most doctors in Australia

Alice Springs Hospital has an exciting position for an Orthopaedic Specialist interested in surgery that specialises in the care of Aboriginal people in a remote environment.  Alice Springs is located 1,500km from the next surgical facility and serves a radius of 750km.  The medicine is complex with 50% of the work being emergency admissions.  Little of the work is routine or predictable.  Around 70% of the patients are Aboriginal with an interesting mixture of trauma and elective orthopaedic surgery.  Bone infection, hand injury, paediatric orthopaedics and neglected trauma, along with elective surgery including arthroplasty and arthroscopy, offers a diverse range of opportunities for a general orthopaedic surgeon.

We are looking for an enthusiastic consultant and provide leadership to the unit, through the Department of Surgery - Orthopaedics, to Alice Springs Hospital, Alice Springs and Barkly regions and fringe areas of Western Australia and South Australia. Have at least 2 years post fellowship experience.  You will have an interest in developing and improving services through education and a safety and quality approach.
