Robotic jobs in United States

The Urology Department, led by Mr. Paul Hunter-Campbell, includes 14 consultants--the largest team in the Peninsula region. Supported by nine middle-grade doctors providing 24-hour on-call cover, as well as trainees, foundation doctors, surgical care practitioners, and specialist nurses, our team is committed to delivering exceptional, high-quality care.

Our state-of-the-art Chestnut Unit outpatient department offers one-stop clinics, supported by a multidisciplinary team. Robotic surgeries are performed using the Da Vinci X system in the Freedom Operating Theatres, equipped with two robotic consoles to facilitate hands-on training, with surgical care practitioners providing bedside assistance.

We provide comprehensive urological services, including:

• Complex kidney stone surgery with the only fixed-site lithotripter in the Peninsula.
• Functional and neuro-urology.
• Andrological care for the entire Peninsula.
• Bladder outflow obstruction treatments including HoLEP.
• Paediatric urology, including laparoscopic procedures.
• Kidney transplantation.
• Uro-oncology services for prostate, bladder, renal, and penile cancers.
• Tertiary referrals for radical prostatectomy, cystectomy, partial nephrectomy, and adrenalectomy from The Royal Cornwall Hospital.

We collaborate closely with interventional radiology (available 24/7), general radiology, clinical oncology, general surgery, ITU, and anaesthetics.

Ideal candidates will have completed their urology training and are seeking to specialise further in Robotic Pelvic Onco-Urology. The fellowship provides in-depth experience in robotic pelvic oncology surgery, particularly radical prostatectomy and cystectomy, with the goal of enabling independent robotic surgery practice by the end of the fellowship.

Experience within the UK healthcare system or an equivalent setting is desirable. Overseas applicants must be eligible for General Medical Council registration and have achieved an overall IELTS score of at least 7.5. Please refer to the GMC website for registration requirements.
