Welcome to
The Beeches Medical Centre

We are a small long established practice serving the village of Longton and surrounding areas. We try to get to know our patients and are committed to continuity of care which we believe is so important for everyone.

The Beeches Medical Centre is part of the Preston and South Ribble Primary Care Network (PCN). The Preston and South Ribble Primary Care Network comprises of:

The Beeches Medical Centre

Fishergate Hill Medical Centre

Longton Health Centre

St Fillans Medical Centre

We will aim to collaborate and work in a streamlined way to strengthen relationships within our PCN and build effective community links whilst responding to local, regional and national initiatives.  The projects in the PCN involve working with outreach teams in the local community.  This work involves working with the local food banks, offering health checks, lifestyle advice, social prescribing support and assistance and working to tackle health inequalities in the area.

We offer a wide range of clinics and services whilst working closely with other health care professionals to be part of an efficient primary health care team. Whilst most care is delivered in surgery, where appropriate you may be asked to attend local health centres or even hospital. We understand that in exceptional circumstances care needs to be given at home.

Service dogs are welcome into surgery, regrettably no other animals are permitted. All our consulting rooms are on the ground floor and are accessible to wheelchair users, there is also a wheelchair accessible toilet and baby changing facilities within the surgery. We can also arrange access to telephone translators if required, please request at time of booking your appointment. 

Small practices are under threat nationally and whilst we may work in a traditional “patient-centred” way, we are also dealing with the relentless changes expected of us and planning for the future. We work under the umbrella of Lancashire and South Cumbria Integrated Care Board (ICB) and NHS England (NHSE), please be understanding with us when we tell you that not everything is under our control!
