Supported by certificate holders in ultrasound and dentistry, you'll have plenty of opportunities to learn from experienced colleagues, with CPD and certificate study actively encouraged to help you achieve your career ambitions.

Well Equipped to Deliver Exceptional Care

Working across our Totton and Lyndhurst sites, you'll have access to modern facilities including digital and dental radiography, ultrasound and a fully equipped in-house laboratory, giving you everything you need to confidently investigate and manage your cases to a high clinical standard.
