The aim is for our workforce to be truly representative and for each employee to feel respected and able to give their best. To this end, NHS Scotland welcomes applications from all sections of society.
Applications are invited from enthusiastic Doctors to develop skills and experience as a Specialty Doctor within Grampian Sexual Health (GSH) based at Aberdeen Health Village with occasional additional cover for sites in Aberdeen city and Aberdeenshire.
GSH is an integrated Sexual Health service hosted by the Aberdeen Health and Social Care Partnership to provide Sexual Health Services across Grampian (Aberdeen City, Aberdeenshire and Moray). This is a busy service with around 37,000 clinical contacts per year. The main site is based within the Aberdeen Community Health and Care Village, Frederick Street in the centre of Aberdeen.
