Neurologist

Samos Consulting is looking for a full time or part-time Neurologist to join the existing specialist team in a large regional Hospital.

The Hospital is a 350 bed secondary care hospital, which services a population of 230,000 for general neurology and close to 300,000 for neurophysiology.

The neurology service is run by two full time consultant neurologists with a special interest in epilepsy, stroke, multiple sclerosis, and autonomic nervous system dysfunction and is an accredited advanced trainee site. Ideally, a third neurologist would add expertise in neuromuscular disease or movement disorders, but any combination of skills would be welcome.

Both adult and paediatric EEG, nerve conduction studies, and electromyography are provided on site and there is capacity to offer evoked potentials. There is also an active botox clinic, specialist MS and epilepsy clinics, a multi-disciplinary MND clinic, and a rapid access TIA clinic. Inpatients are co-managed with general medicine and neurology runs the stroke team and a stroke thrombolysis service. Currently, there is no formal after-hours call obligation.

The service also actively supports the development of integrated care via close working relationships with general practitioners in the region. The neurology service is recognised across the district as being a leader in innovation and integration.

This great role is based in a lovely university city and in a region which allows you to enjoy the great New Zealand outdoors. If you are looking for a change for the better, for you, and your family and for the professional recognition and support you deserve… contact us now!
