The UK’s largest dentistry provider, {my}dentist, has invested £3.6 million to merge two of its practices in Bath into a single, brand-new practice in Rush Hill.
The practice was officially launched by practice manager, Helen Chamberlain, and her team on July 6, 2023.
After a project lasting 16 months, all the dentists and staff from Oldfield and Twerton practices have moved to the new site where patient appointments are underway. The move means that {my}dentist’s 25,000 patients in Bath are benefitting from modern, state-of-the-art surgeries, a greater range of dental treatments and dental technology, as well as improved transport links, parking and accessibility.
The total number of surgeries available has increased to 14 at the new practice meaning that there are a greater range of appointments available, including evenings and weekends. In addition, there are two further surgeries planned for next year, taking the total to 16.
{my}dentist has also been able to create 14 new jobs for the local area for clinicians, dental nurses and receptionists.
Ruth Wells, {my}dentist area development manager, said, “We’ve been working to bring together our practices in Bath for 16 months, so to see the new practice finally open is fantastic.
“With 14 modern surgeries and the opportunity to expand with a further two, we now have much more choice for patients, plus our team are benefitting from improved facilities and rest areas. Our aim was to meet the needs of our patients and our team here in Bath now and in the future, and feedback so far has been extremely positive.
“We know that accessing dental care in this region is difficult which is why we’re pleased to be able to offer {my}options, an affordable way to access a dentist when you need one.”
