CHEC is a UK-based provider of community-focused healthcare, partnering with the NHS for more than a decade. Based in Preston, in the North West of England, it operates more than 30 hospitals and 90 community sites across England to deliver specialist services in ophthalmology, gastroenterology, dermatology, and ENT. The aim is to bring care closer to patients, increasing choice and flexibility while targeting shorter waiting times. In ophthalmology, NHS treatments include cataract surgery, eyelid surgery, YAG laser, medical retina, glaucoma management, ocular hypertension monitoring, and general ophthalmology conditions. In gastroenterology, services cover consultant triage, colonoscopy, gastroscopy, GI outpatient assessments, and therapies such as biopsies and polyp removal up to 1 cm, as well as hemorrhoid removal. CHEC continues to roll out new hospitals to meet rising demand and expand local access to these specialized services.
