What Zero says. Working for the NHS Courier service for a while taught me where all the the little compartments are. Emergency NHS dentist - 10 miles away, appointment more or less the same day, community dentist 4 miles away at a hospital - don't need to be registered etc. My own surgery is quite old fashioned but quite large. Phoned in for an appointment at 930am last Weds - got one that afternoon - prescription "encashed" at no charge on-site. But I do believe that appointments should be charged for (free for people on benefits). I'd happily pay thirty quid to get one when I wanted.
