About the role
The Dermatology Service in West Wales provides specialist care across a large, geographically dispersed, and predominantly rural population. The service manages a broad range of dermatological conditions, including suspected and confirmed skin cancers, chronic inflammatory skin diseases, and complex dermatological cases that require assessment and treatment by experienced and highly skilled clinicians. Demand for dermatology services continues to increase, driven by rising skin cancer incidence, an ageing population, and the growing complexity of patients requiring specialist care.
This post is essential to support the continued delivery of safe, effective, and timely dermatology services across the region. The successful candidate will join a dedicated, experienced, and multidisciplinary team committed to providing high-quality patient-centred care for the population of West Wales. The role will contribute significantly to maintaining service capacity, reducing waiting times, improving patient access to specialist assessment, and supporting the delivery of national and local performance targets.
The appointment of this post will strengthen the sustainability and resilience of the Dermatology Service, ensuring continued delivery of high-quality care to patients across West Wales while supporting future service transformation and innovation within the specialty.
