What to do if you have not had an acknowledgement of your Expression Of Interest to join a practice
If three months have passed since submitting a request to join, you may need to resubmit a form. You can also call or visit the dental practice.
The backlog of patient requests to join a practice is three months for Portsmouth Dental Care and Copnor Dental Care. You should receive an acknowledgement. If you contact the surgery, you can be registered if you have waited for more than three months.
