Leicester Shoulder & Elbow Fellowship is one of 18 identities in the current BESS UK planning directory. BESS explicitly states that ordinary directory entries are not formally assessed or affiliated with BESS or RCS England, so current vacancy, employment, registration and visa terms remain confirmation-required unless separately published.
Intended for: Senior orthopaedic trainees and post-training surgeons seeking advanced shoulder and elbow practice
BENEFITS & SUPPORT
Published benefits and support
BESS directory: on average two half days provided for audit, research activity and continuing professional development under the guidance of the shoulder and elbow consultants. BESS lists these expectations for UK directory fellowships: named educational supervisor(s), two outpatient clinics and three theatre sessions per week, protected weekly research time, and a study leave allowance (and budget) with a career development mentor (society expectation, not a post-specific contract term)
