Doctor and Dentist

Doctor

We strongly advise ALL students to make sure they are registered with a local GP and so we maintain close links with two local surgeries.

Lavant Road Surgery is within walking distance of Bishop Otter Campus. Details of their opening times and the services they offer can be found at www.lavantsurgery.co.uk or by telephoning them on 01243 527264. Bersted Green Surgery is within walking distance of Bognor Regis Campus. Details of their opening times and the services they offer can be found at www.berstedgreensurgery.co.uk or by telephoning them on 01243 864843.

We also hold details of other surgeries in and around Chichester and Bognor if needed.

Dentist

There are rarely any NHS dentists available in this area. Therefore we strongly recommend that you maintain contact with your dentist at home.

If you do need to register with a dentist in West Sussex then you can obtain details of any that are accepting NHS patients by telephoning the Dental Enquiry Line on 01273 403546. The answerphone message will ask you to leave your name and address and then the information will be sent out to you in the post.

However, if you require treatment there is an Emergency Dental Service at the Jubilee Dental Centre at St Richard’s Hospital Chichester. This is an appointment-only service and all appointments can only be made by telephone. This can make it difficult to access as the line is often busy but you will not be seen if you just turn up! Opening hours are Monday to Friday 5.30 pm to 10pm; weekends / Bank Holidays 8.30am to 1pm. Telephone: 01243 831790
