We will work with you to agree a rotation that is tailored to your learning needs. Facilitated by an experienced Psychiatrist, an active FY3 peer group meets monthly enabling you to share and learn from peers whilst working towards your annual appraisal.

We understand that you need the freedom to explore exciting personal experiences. As an FY3 Doctor, we can offer you the opportunity to achieve a positive work life balance and enable you to have the opportunity to take unpaid leave.
