Locum Dentist Earn £500 - £600 per day

This is a strong locum opportunity at a well-regarded, independent principal-led practice in Central Newcastle (just 10 minutes from the city centre).

You'll inherit an established list with a solid mix of continuing and new patients, working 2 or 3 days per week (flexible days) across a busy four-surgery site.

Who We're Looking For

• GDC-registered dentist with a valid NHS Performer Number - both mandatory
