How do I describe clinical posts and rotations on a physician CV?

List each post with the job title or grade, specialty, hospital, country and dates, then two to four bullets on the clinical scope, responsibilities and any notable achievements. Rotations within a training programme can sit under one heading.

Example entry (fictional):
"Specialty Registrar, Cardiology – Westbridge University Hospital, 2021–2024

• Managed acute cardiology admissions and inpatient referrals across a 40-bed cardiology unit.
• Performed and reported transthoracic echocardiograms under consultant supervision.
• Ran a weekly heart failure clinic with the specialist nurse team.
• Led an audit of discharge medication reconciliation, presented at the department meeting."

Use full specialty names and avoid hospital-specific abbreviations. Describe your role, not individual patient cases. For each post, readers usually want to know the size and type of the hospital, your level of responsibility, on-call duties and any supervision of junior colleagues. If you held several short rotations within one training scheme, group them under the scheme name with one line per rotation, so the history stays easy to follow.
