Why Train in the East of England?

og.jpg

Our deanery offers excellent training and education.

We aim to produce fully trained, competent and professional specialists who are "fit for purpose". We pride ourselves in the delivery of high quality training, supporting trainees, educators and trainers. 

Many of our units rank highly in National Training Evaluation by trainees.

Southend is currently the 2018 top performing unit for overall performance, gynaecological training and education in the UK and in the top 10 performing units for Obstetric training. 

Obstetrics and Gynaecology is one of the broadest of hospital based specialities encompassing aspects of medicine, surgery and childbirth.

Variety is one of the major attractions particularly in the early stages of training.

The opportunities to specialise in different areas are available later in the programme.

Trainees will either develop one or two areas of special interest or will train in one of the subspecialities​.
