If you haven’t done so already, we strongly encourage you to register with an NHS GP (General Practitioner) when you arrive on campus to access health services.

At King’s, we have our own NHS Health Centre that students can join for free. Our article How can I register with a doctor and/or dentist? provides guidance on how to register with a GP for the first time.

Look out for the Winter edition of Live Well, Feel Great in your inbox in February. It’s our seasonal health and wellbeing magazine, packed with tips to help you enjoy a healthy, balanced and fulfilling university experience.
