No banks, no Post Office, the newsagents is closing in a couple of days, no Council Offices, no Community Centre, and now no NHS dentist.
Hay-on-Wye Dental Centre has been trying to recruit a new NHS dentist, and have not been able to find one, so they have given notice to the Powys Teaching Health Board that they will be stopping NHS treatment from September, and only emergency treatment will be available from now until then.
Private dental treatment is unaffected.
Patients who need urgent treatment should call 111, and patients at the practice who will be affected (that'll include me) will receive information from the Powys Teaching Health Board about where to access treatment, and what they are going to do to provide alternative NHS dental services.
