Clinical Experience
I have been a generalist consultant in Obstetrics & Gynaecology sub-specialising in medical education for five years. I moved into my current post less than a year ago replacing Prof Ian Symonds who took a chair in Australia. My recent clinical experience therefore spans two sites; Derby and Chesterfield. For clarity I will delineate them separately.
Derby City General Hospital
A large tertiary centre, teaching hospital which is due to become twice its current size as it will join with Derby Royal
Infirmary (also a tertiary centre) on the City site next year. A graduate entry medical school is attached and we also accept Nottingham students (school-leaver entry) for clinical attachments.
There are 4,700 deliveries per annum. It has CNST 2 status.
My weekly clinical commitment breaks down as follows:
One session (or PA):

Gynaecology Out-Patients
Ante-Natal Clinic incorporating the service for pregnant drug-dependant women

Ward rounds
Gynaecology Audit Lead
(Six sessions University)
I perform and teach all the routine minor and major gynaecological procedures and accept vaginal hysterectomies and pelvic floor work from Prof RW Shaw who reciprocates by taking laparoscopic laser surgery cases from me. I offer
Tensionless Vaginal Tape procedures (obturator approach) to the urogynaecology unit. I am competent at managing ectopic pregnancy both medically and laparoscopically.
My intra-partum care and gynaecological emergency activity is restricted to when I am on-call. The on-call runs in two parallel systems. A week of day time on-call rotates round all the consultants; weekend and overnight on-call rotates on a one in 23 basis (for academics).
During on-call I provide support, supervision and training to the on-call team which consists of two tiers of SpRs and two SHOs. The unit is often busy and when on-call I expect resident for much of the time. We are a tertiary centre that accepts high risk pregnancies and consequently I am needed to be on site to lead the management of these cases on the labour suite. I perform and teach all the usual instrumental and operative delivery techniques including Kjelland's rotation forceps.
I am experienced in dealing with obstetric emergencies (including post-partum hysterectomy) and provide training in them..
Chesterfield Royal Hospital
I was a generalist consultant with special interests in medical education, urogynaecology and colposcopy for four years there. My weekly activities were as follows:

(Two sessions: Associate Director of Teaching/Education provision)
(Quarter session: In house teaching for the SHOs)
The on-call rotated on a 1 in 6 basis covering both Obstetrics & Gynaecology. Chesterfield is a CNST 3 unit with 2,700 deliveries per annum.
I was the obstetric lead for the introduction of multidisciplinary training in obstetric emergencies. I designed the curriculum for a rolling programme and introduced it at neutral cost/cost-improvement (funding came indirectly through the consequent upgrading of CNST 3 status and a reduction in the trust's premium). This training was a main plank for our success at gaining CNST 3 status.
Education
This is my principal area of interest. I have devoted much of the last five years to obtaining the relevant qualifications in medical education but I have a longstanding interest.
1. Personal Development in Education
Diploma in (Clinical) Education
There were four modules on this course:
1.
Teaching: Effective teaching, lecturing, small group work, one-to-one teaching and problem based learning were covered.
2.
Assessment: Both formative and summative: curriculum design and curriculum quality assurance were also covered. Distinction awarded
3.
IT:
4.
PDA
(Information technology) This developed our skills to a level where we were creating interactive web pages complete with hyperlinks and roll-overs (using
Dream-weaver). For my assignment I designed a CAL-package for teaching undergraduates about menstrual disorders.
(Personal Development & Appraisal) This included training in reflective practice (Schönian model) and counselling skills. Also covered were revalidation and appraisal.
2. Associate Professor in Medical Education
In my current role my main remit is to provide education in Obstetrics & Gynaecology to a combination of school entry and graduate entry medical students. I work in a team of committed educationalists comprising myself, an NHS consultant in Obstetrics & Gynaecology with a teaching remit, two acute service midwives, one community midwife and my teaching fellow. Other consultants and academics contribute. We have dedicated clerical and administrative support.
We have two dedicated buildings for education provision with near full specification for multi-format teaching.
We use a number of techniques covering nearly all the teaching methods. We still do a few lectures which are good at covering broad based topics in an efficient manner. We try to incorporate break-out groups or an exercise within those lectures to keep the students stimulated. Most of our teaching is delivered in interactive small-group tutorials. These have a varied format and include traditional bedside teaching. Other formats include SHARP (scenario, history and role play) sessions, obstetric emergency moulages (including the midwifery students), brainstorming and pyramid sessions.
I run a second gynaecology clinic in the week as a teaching clinic with five new patients who have agreed to have their histories taken by students and allow, within reason, the students to help with the pelvic examination i.e. pass the speculum. My NHS counterpart has a similar arrangement for antenatal clinic.
Students also experience GU medicine, community midwifery and provision of antenatal and post-natal care at GP surgeries whilst on attachment to us. They undertake one week of labour suite attachment and perform normal deliveries under the supervision of senior midwives.
We run a formative exam and OSCE towards the end of their attachment.
Students keep a log of their activities and this incorporates provision for them to reflect on their experience. The logbook becomes part of their summative assessment for MBBS finals.
In the larger university I assist in the design of their summative assessment which is by VRQs (varied response questionnaire) and an OSCE. I sit on the undergraduate education committee which is largely to do with curriculum design, quality assurance and examination setting as well as the usual mundane matters of finding examiners and locations to hold examinations in.
I sit on FAGILE (Faculty Advisory Group on Interprofessional Learning and Education) which advises the schools of medicine, nursing, midwifery and the peripatetic disciplines on multidisciplinary training. We have held two multidisciplinary conferences this year in which we discussed a wide range of issues that impact on several professions
5

e.g. the Victoria Climbie case. The format was lectures and break-out sessions.
I sit on the IPE (Interprofessional Education) committee which has a similar role to FAGILE but is concentrated on the
Obstetrics & Gynaecology/Midwifery interface. This committee has been very successful in introducing highly rated interprofessional training in intrapartum care.
Nationally I contributed to the RCOG/RCM joint working party on the clinical learning environment and recruitment.
This party's report was published in January 2008. It is concerned with the quality of education and support for students and trainees.
3. Associated Director Teaching (ADT), Sheffield Medical School
I held this post whilst I was a consultant at Chesterfield which had become an associate teaching hospital at that time.
Sheffield was rolling out its new teaching programme (a Maastricht hybrid) and simultaneously expanding its intake.
Their lead-in time was short. They were facing significant problems with curriculum design because of this.
Departments were being asked to produce PBL (problem based learning) curricula and were failing to do so.
Many were struggling with the concept of PBL. I remain ambivalent. Whilst I recognise the theoretical benefits, I perceive a philosophical dichotomy. PBL is by definition student-centred but we must teach medical students to be patient-centred, There is a potential for students to indulge in navel-gazing when they should be engaged with the patient. This has been borne-out in some instances.
Nevertheless I enjoyed the challenge.
The majority of my time in this role was spent in explaining PBL and assisting in curriculum design, negotiating with clinical directors to take on more students and negotiating more SIFT (Service Increment For Training) money from the university. Ultimately, we achieved all our targets and the new curriculum is widely regarded as a success.
4. Multidisciplinary Training and Acquisition of CNST 3 status (Chesterfield)
I designed the training package that was crucial to our gaining CNST 3 status and, as was my remit, achieved it at a cost-neutral basis.
The training was for all personnel on labour suite (including health care assistants) and had behavioural objectives. The format varied between small group tutorials and mock scenarios using props (moulage). I had help from my colleagues in Obstetrics, Midwifery, Anaesthetics and Paediatrics.
Nationally we were one of the first three units to gain CNST 3 status.
5. Postgraduate Training
In house I deliver practical tutorials to SHOs and SpRs on areas of clinical concern and other issues of import e.g. critical appraisal.
I sit on the Sub-Deanery Education Committee which concerns itself with the delivery of education to SpRs in the Mid-
Trent area. I am currently responsible for their training programme.
I am the University of Nottingham course academic lead for our successful part I and part II MRCOG courses and deliver lectures for both (q.v. section 9). I also lecture to DRCOG and DFFP candidates. At time of writing 60% of our part II course candidates have passed their written examination and have moved to the OSCE stage (3/40 did not sit this time).
I have been an RCOG tutor (at Chesterfield).
I provide mentorship and support to my teaching fellow who is taking her Cert.Ed and wants to move on to a diploma in time.
I am co-supervisor of two MD students registered at St. George's, London.
I provide clinical training, mentorship and support to my lecturer and SHO.
6. Doctors in Difficulty Programme
I set up this programme with a colleague at Chesterfield. It was need that drove us to develop this programme rather than foresight, nevertheless it was based on principals that I had been taught during my PDA training. A timely RCOG document (April 2002) discussing this issue was most helpful. So far we have put three doctors through this programme, all the while maintaining communications with the office of the Postgraduate Dean who has been most supportive.

7. General Practitioners
I am involved in the continuing education of General Practitioners, usually at evening gatherings. I plan these sessions to be interactive and fun as well as having a serious message. These have been well received (q.v. invited lectures heading).
8. Nurses
I have been a guest speaker at the University of Nottingham’s School of Nursing's biannual course 'Management of
Care in a Gynaecological Setting' since 1997. I lecture to a group of about twelve nurses on menstrual disorders and premenstrual syndrome.

10. Consultant Appraisal
I am a trained appraiser and have undertaken this role for three years.
Administration
I currently run four MRCOG courses a year as academic lead, q.v.under sections 5 & 9 in Education. I organise the speakers, the timetable, the OSCE stations and the feedback. On the last course I did I also had to organise an alternative venue for the OSCEs and get the examiners and candidates there. Examiners and actress patients are apt to cancel at the last minute. I organise back-up.
I am the Gynaecological audit lead for my unit. I organise the subject material, provide statistical support and chivvy completion of audits.
In my role as ADT (q.v. section 3 under Education) I had to draw on man-management skills and a level of diplomacy that I did not believe I could achieve. The role whilst I was there was administratively unsupported and in a short space of time I had to become au-fait with the workings of a medical school and the structure of my own hospital from practically every angle. Problems came down to three main issues:
1.
Student placement
2.
Curriculum change
3.
Money
I dealt with some pretty forceful characters and by diplomacy and compromise achieved my objectives.

Audit
I am the Gynaecological Audit Lead at Derby (q.v. under Administration), the same unit where I was a member of the
Maternity & Gynaecology Audit Committee as an SpR in 1997-8. Audit proposals are screened and allocated to SHOs and SpRs. Their progress is checked upon. Conclusions of audits are seen to be put into practice and re-audit dates set.
I am fully conversant with the audit process and concept of the audit spiral.
These are the titles of the audits I have undertaken personally:

Research
I have recently returned to academia and have commenced supervision of a clinical fellow at the end of August 2006.
We are currently working together to devise a suitable research project and one potential study is exploring medical students' attitudes to training broken down into comparison groups (GEM students and traditional entry students). We are involving one of the students as part of the study group. He is eager to pursue a career in Obstetrics & Gynaecology and I am encouraging him and helping as best as I can.
I have been providing statistical support to groups who have data they wish to analyse and/or present and are either uncertain how to go about it or their statistical methodology is flawed. I have provided this support to St. George's
Urogynaecology unit in the past and they are kindly involving me in the analysis of some of their data relating to QOL scoring.
DM
My principal research was in the pathogenesis of pre-eclampsia. I tested the hypothesis that trophoblast deported into the maternal circulation is fundamental to the pathogenesis and should therefore be present in higher quantities in women who have pre-eclampsia and who go on to develop pre-eclampsia.
During my two year research programme I acquired antibodies to demonstrate trophoblast from Flinder's University in
South Australia; developed a filtration enrichment technique to capture trophoblasts from blood samples; developed a radio-immunoassay to quantify them; and performed a cross sectional study (pre-eclamptic patients versus matched controls) and a longitudinal study.
BSc(Hons)
I was introduced to laboratory based research at Liverpool University in the Honours School of Pharmacology. My research was into the transdermal pharmacokinetics of Norethisterone acetate.

Outside Activities
I spend as much time as I can with my family. We spend the majority of our time together walking in the Peak District with our our Labrador, Louie. We are members of the National Trust and English Heritage. We also enjoy swimming, ten-pin bowling and trips to the seaside.
11

My older son (Callum) enjoys a game of chess and is starting to beat me! Callum and I both enjoy skiing and go once a year to the Aosta Valley.
Fergus, our younger son, is on the autism spectrum presenting predominantly with speech delay. Liz and I spend much of our free time working with him to develop strategies to encourage him to use language more.
I enjoy cookery, a hobby of mine since medical school, and entertain family and friends with ever more lavish and intricate dinner parties. On a more atavistic level I love to barbecue. A love of food has led to my taking up vegetable gardening as the flavour of home-grown is hard to beat. I have four beds on a crop rotation, a greenhouse (tomatoes), a strawberry patch, two apple trees and a pear tree.
