Dr Janette Cansick

I graduated from Cambridge University in 1994 and undertook training in paediatrics. I am accredited in both general paediatrics and paediatric nephrology, having undertaken specialist nephrology training at Birmingham Children’s Hospital and Great Ormond Street Hospital.

I was a consultant paediatrician with an interest in nephrology at Royal Free Hospital in London from February 2007 until November 2012 when I took up my current consultant post at Medway Maritime Hospital. I have a monthly nephrology clinic in parallel with a visiting consultant urologist from Evelina Children’s Hospital.

I am College Tutor for the paediatric directorate and am passionate about training and developing an excellent training culture. I have a Certificate in Executive Coaching and Mentoring, and have mentored many doctors over the last four years. 

I am an Advanced Paediatric Life Support instructor and am committed to simulation and resuscitation training. I have published in peer review journals and continue to be involved in research, supporting local recruitment into national trials.
