Fiance visa: eligible for NHS GP and dentist treatment?

Hi My partner is in the UK on a fiance visa and I just wanted to check that he is absolutely entitled to register with our local GP and, more importantly at the moment, with an NHS dentist before we get married?

Hi Hazro Thank you for the PM. Thought better to post my reply in the forum.
