ROYAL COLLEGE OF PHYSICIANS OF EDINBURGH

LIST OF FELLOWSHIP CANDIDATES (MEMBERS)

PROPOSALS FOR ELECTION OF MEMBERS TO FELLOWSHIP
The candidates listed are in alphabetical order, and have been considered by the Fellowship Committee and then by Council on 25 May 2012 and have received provisional approval: provided no adverse comments are received from Fellows within 1 month, the candidates will be elected to Fellowship subject to consent/payment of the Fellowship Fee and other necessary obligations. Election of Members to Fellowship: this procedure is applicable to those individuals who have passed the MRCP (UK), MRCP (Edin) or MRCPCH and are now working as independent practitioners, usually physicians, but other specialties are welcome. The criteria for consideration for election to Fellowship were recently reviewed by the Fellowship Committee and are generally as follows:
1 Candidates in the UK should normally have held a substantive NHS Consultant post or equivalent appointment for at least 11 months before they are nominated, during which period no questions about their performance have been raised. [Locum Consultants posts: the Fellowship Committee would normally expect doctors to have moved into a substantive Consultant post before being nominated for Fellowship.] A General Practitioner should have been an independent general practitioner for 5 years. Doctors working in Hong Kong who have held a Senior Medical Officer post or Associate Consultant post for at least 4 years are eligible for nomination. Overseas candidates should hold an appointment in their country that is of equivalent standing to a UK consultant appointment. Candidates should provide evidence of current and future commitment to medical education. SAS doctors in the UK (Staff and Associate Specialists) are eligible for election to Fellowship, a minimum of 10 years post full registration, and show sustained and significant evidence of extra activities in the areas of clinical, education, managerial responsibility and/or medical research. The expectations for SAS doctors include: Publications 2 in peer-reviewed journals preferably to include international Ongoing research evidence of significant contribution to current research relevant to medicine Teaching evidence of significant, sustained contribution to undergraduate and/or postgraduate teaching Management evidence of significant ongoing contribution to development and/or improvement of patient services Involvement in professional organisations related to medicine/healthcare e.g. Royal Colleges, Guideline Development Groups etc.

Proposers of SAS doctors are invited to provide covering letters outlining their candidates careers, and their reasons for proposing the candidates. Proposers seeking additional guidance can contact the Secretary or Vice President (Professional Development). 5 We encourage the nomination of individuals who are not physicians, where their work has made a significant contribution to the practice of medicine either of itself or through close collaboration with physicians and paediatricians.

Fellows may comment on any candidate by writing to the Secretary within 1 month of the issue of this circular. The letter should include substantive, objective and verifiable evidence when a negative assessment is put forward. Council will scrutinise all such submitted information and make further independent enquiries before a final decision on election is made.
