title: Staff grade doctors and the consultant ladder: falling off or stepping off?
abstract: The majority of the doctors in staff grade posts surveyed had qualified overseas and a substantial proportion were dissatisfied with their posts. Very few doctors had received adequate careers counselling before starting their post and many were concerned at the lack of opportunities for career development.
