In the same 360 deg appraisal,15/15 colleagues rated me as good/outstanding for clinical assessment and 16/16 good/outstanding for patient management. In my last 360 deg appraisal, 25/26 patients were 'very satisfied' with their consultation.Ĭomments such as ‘The doctor was excellent and always has been’, ' A very competent doctor’, ‘Prepared to listen and give his time’, ‘Friendly and made me feel at ease' provide strong evidence of high quality care.įeedback from colleagues is also very relevant. Patient feedback is central in ensuring high quality care. I have chosen to maintain a very active, patient focused clinical role since my appointment in 1997. I was appointed as a Consultant Endocrinologist/Diabetologist at the University Hospitals Birmingham Foundation Trust, Birmingham, on 1 December 1997. I am also a member of the Society for Endocrinology, Endocrine Society (USA) and Diabetes (UK).
ANDY BATES PROFESSIONAL
My professional qualifications include a BSc (Hons) in Chemical Pathology, MBChB, MD and FRCP (UK). I became a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians in 2003. I was awarded a Sheldon Research Fellowship following a competitive selection process, to fund a period of three years of research under the supervision of Professor RN Clayton, which culminated in the award of my MD thesis in 1997 (Molecular genetics and epidemiology of pituitary tumours). I obtained membership of the Royal College of Physicians at the first attempt in 1990. I have been fortunate in training under the supervision of many very eminent endocrinologists in the past, both in Birmingham and beyond.
