Whether you need to register with a doctor, or you'd like some medical advice, there are a variety of services available to you.
The Medical Centre on Talbot Campus is open from Monday to Friday, 8.45am - 5pm, during term-time only. You will need to be registered with the Medical Centre to book an appointment, which you can do via the website.
How to book an appointment
Call 01202 965378 to book an appointment, the phone lines can be very busy so you may need to wait.
You can also book appointments online using SystmOnline. Initially you’ll need to register for SystmOnline, this is available 24 hours a day for you to view, book and cancel appointments.
Important: You will need to wear a face covering when you visit the Medical Centre (unless you are exempt). If you are an emergency patient, you will be seen as soon as possible. If you have an urgent issue, you will be seen on the same day, but you may be required to wait. Please do not attend if you have any Covid-19 symptoms.
If you would prefer to register with a medical centre closer to your accommodation, you can find a full list of local GP surgeries on the NHS website.
