Dr Mark Slade

I am now working part-time as a locum consultant in acute medicine at Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, having retired from full-time work in August 2018. Between December 2014 and August 2018 I was a consultant respiratory physician at Gloucestershire Hospitals, with a special interest in lung cancer and interventional pulmonology. From July 2008 until December 2014 I practised in general respiratory medicine at Cambridge University Hospitals (Addenbrooke's) and in specialist respiratory medicine at Papworth Hospital. I studied medicine in London at Guy’s Hospital before completing my training in Oxford, Sydney, Cambridge and Norwich. I worked as a consultant physician at the Oxford University Hospitals from 2000-08 before moving to Papworth to pursue my specialist interests in lung cancer. I was Medical Director at Papworth from January 2013 to December 2014.
