House Surgeon to Mr A Wyatt Brooke General Hospital, London 5 I have been practising as a Consultant Obstetrician & Gynaecologist at the Conquest Hospital as part of East Sussex Healthcare for over 15 years. I have been fortunate to be able to develop my interests at the Conquest in conjunction with my medical and non-medical colleagues. For the last 8 years, in addition to my clinical interests, I have been focussing on issues around clinical management, governance and financial balance. These skills have also enabled me to develop my interest in medico-legal work. Clinical Practice Obstetrics and Gynaecology I have a keen interest in Obstetrics and labour ward management and am fully competent in the day to day running of the Obstetric Unit. In collaboration with my Consultant and midwifery colleagues I review the Delivery suite guidelines at the Conquest Hospital using evidence based and best practice guidelines where appropriate. Until 2005 I was the nominated Delivery suite lead at the Conquest Hospital and more recently have been giving active support to my new colleagues in this area. I actively participate in CNST development needs and assisted the team in achieving Level 2 CNST status in maternity services in 2012. I am a firm believer in offering appropriate models of care to our pregnant population and offer a regular antenatal clinic in Crowborough for women who may wish to consider a midwifery led birth at our birthing centres. For the last 6 years I have been leading the development of new models of care in Obstetric practice and have led the temporary reconfiguration of Consultant led care onto the Conquest site. I provide a comprehensive gynaecological service to the local population with a special interest in Reproductive medicine. I have been actively involved in the development of a “one-stop” gynaecological service encompassing transvaginal ultrasound and out-patient hysteroscopy. 6 I am able to diagnose all gynaecological malignancies and have also gained exposure to their surgery. I am competent in the interpretation of urodynamic studies and in performing routine urogynaecological surgical techniques. I have always been keen to further develop my own surgical skills and help in the training of more junior staff. I secured financial assistance from the League of Friends to purchase the “Harmonic scalpel” for laparoscopic surgery. Infertility and Reproductive Endocrinology I am proficient in the management of the infertile couple and have been able to develop a research interest in this field. I am competent in the assessment, investigation and treatment of the infertile couple and have dedicated Fertility clinics at the Conquest Hospital. I provide a comprehensive fertility service including ovulation induction using clomiphene citrate and exogenous gonadotrophins and intra-uterine insemination. I am competent in the monitoring of follicular growth, superovulation and oocyte retrieval using ultrasound techniques and have for the last 9 years provided a comprehensive NHS and Private IVF service for the local East Sussex population through the Esperance Hospital, Eastbourne. I have extensive experience in surgery related to the infertile woman and in particular, am competent in laparoscopic surgical techniques including the laparoscopic treatment of endometriosis. 7 Management, Administration and Committee Work 1) Local As a Consultant my day to day job encompasses all aspects of management and am keen to build upon my experience and seek advice where appropriate. For the last 6 years in addition to local management duties, I have led the ongoing reconfiguration discussions in Maternity and Newborn models of care at ESHT. In particular, I am the Lead clinical advisor to the Trust Board in terms of recommending safe and sustainable delivery model for Consultant led care. I led the temporary reconfiguration of services for safety reasons at the Conquest site and am involved in the ongoing public consultation on this issue.

I often help colleagues preparing for the DRCOG and MRCOG examinations and examine at the Conquest MRCOG course. I regularly teach medical and midwifery students and have taught final year students preparing for their final Obstetrics and Gynaecology examination on both an informal and formal basis. I have lectured at a number of Post-Graduate meetings within the hospitals that I have worked, and continue to do so at Conquest Hospital. I recognise the importance of medical audit in the assessment of our clinical practice and continue to develop my involvement in this area. I participate in CPD and completed my third 5 year cycle for the RCOG in December 2012. Interests Outside medicine, I am a keen tennis player in the summer months, although nowadays I struggle to keep up with my son ! 10 Publications in Peer Review Journals: 1. Zaidi J and Carr J.
