Mammary Fold External Fellowship Directory

Oncoplastic fellowships continue to be a highly sought-after training pathway for breast surgery trainees. In collaboration with regional centres, we have identified anticipated local fellowship opportunities to help address the gap created by the current discontinuation of TIG fellowship programmes.

This list is not exhaustive, and trainees are encouraged to contact individual units directly, as well as monitor advertised positions on the NHS Jobs website.

Units can add their local fellowship to the directory by completing the form below.
