low-secure unit at Lee Mill. There is a junior doctor on Bridford ward, and Staff Grade cover for Lee Mill,<br />
Syrena House, and the Assertive Outreach Service.<br />
Dr Payne has been a Consultant since 1993 and moved from Nottingham to Plymouth in 2002. He is currently<br />
Medical Director and Lead Consultant Psychiatrist for Plymouth Primary Care Trust. Subject to the Interest of<br />
the Trainee, there would be the opportunity to be involved in the development of psychiatric services locally<br />

excellent reputation.<br />
