What the Plymouth market looks like.

Plymouth is the major acute centre for south west Devon and south east Cornwall, and Derriford takes tertiary referrals across a wide rural catchment. Because the nearest alternative acute sites are an hour or more away, hard-to-fill posts often carry longer bookings.
