specialist registrar (UK)

Explanation:
Senior specialist registrar if you want to be more specific. Note that the title of senior registrar no longer exists in the UK.

http://careers.bmj.com/careers/advice/view-article.html?id=1...

Once all modules are successfully completed, French trainees must pass a final exam to receive their specialist diploma. In addition, they have to write a thesis relating to research work they have undertaken. At this point, they can either enter private independent practice or continue to train for a further two to three years as chef de clinique before achieving a permanent post as practicien hospitalier.

The obvious time to undertake an exchange period in the United Kingdom would be during the four year modular training programme. The first two years of the programme are broadly equivalent to the training of a senior house officer (SHO) in the United Kingdom, and the last two years to that of a specialist registrar (SpR). The time spent as chef de clinique is equivalent to the final years of the SpR programme.

You don't need to worry about translating the "assistant des hôpitaix" bit.

As you see, this is not an administrative position.

Chief Attending Physician

Explanation:
I'm not sure how universal this term is - besides being used on the TV show ER (talk about bogus context!) it appears to be used by a large number of real (!) hospital centres (google etc). good luck.
