The UK’s largest dentistry provider, {my}dentist, has opened its purpose-built practice in Bramley Shopping Centre, Leeds.
It has agreed a 15-year lease with landlord LCP, the national commercial property and investment company, for units 26-29, and has merged its two practices in the town to create a 4,885 sq ft modern practice with more surgeries and new dental equipment, as well as better accessibility with surgeries accessible from ground floor level.
There is also a greater range of appointments as the new practice is open evenings and weekends.
All of the clinicians and staff from the previous Broad Lane and Stanningley Road practices have moved to the new premises and a further three jobs have been created for receptionists and a treatment co-ordinator.
Nicola Wood, {my}dentist area development manager, said: “We wanted to bring our patients in Bramley a modern new dental practice that meets their needs now and in the future.
“Our team has worked hard on the new practice and it has been great to hear the positive reaction from patients. With more surgeries we have an increased number of appointments for our existing patients and beyond this, we know that accessing dental care in this region is difficult which is why we have introduced {my}options, an affordable way to access a dentist when you need one.”
Asset manager Rakesh Joshi, lettings director at LCP, said: “After welcoming {my}dentist to The Killingworth Centre, in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, earlier this year, we are pleased to have also brought the surgery to Bramley Shopping Centre, where its 20,000 patients will have access to top-of-the-range equipment in this superbly appointed practice.”
Bramley Shopping Centre is a 132,000 sq ft development, located approximately four miles north-west of Leeds city centre. It is anchored by a Tesco supermarket and other tenants include Boots, William Hill, Poundstretcher and Farmfoods.
Richard Webster of Jackson Criss acted for LCP on the deal and LCP in-house solicitor Liz Alabaster completed the legal transaction.
