A dentist has been struck off after one of her three dogs which she kept at her surgery bit an inspector’s leg.
All three were found under the reception desk as officials probed 57 complaints about safety and hygiene at the South Way Surgery in Newhaven, East Sussex.
A General Dental Council report said: ‘Two of the dogs were aggressive and staff told us that they do not like people. One of the dogs bit the inspector’s leg.’
