New students/students moving address
You must register with a local doctor as soon as possible after your arrival – do not wait until you are ill to do so. You are eligible to register with the Medical Centre if you live in a College hall of residence or within a two to three mile radius of the College.

If you have moved to an address that’s not covered by the Medical Centre’s area, the team at the Centre can advise on registration with a doctor local to your new address. You can continue to see your family doctor at home during vacations.

 

Outside of surgery hours
You can visit the NHS Walk in Centre which is also based at at 40 Goodwood Road SE14 6BL (the same location as the Medical Centre) from 8am-8pm Monday to Saturday. Staff at the Walk in Centre can offer professional health advice and treatment. 

Or telephone NHS Direct (www.nhsdirect.nhs.uk) on 0845 4647 (the telephone number is slightly shorter than regular phone numbers). The service offers health advice 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

In an emergency always telephone 999.
