About Becontree Medical Centre
Becontree Medical Centre is a GP partnership providing NHS primary care to more than 7,800 registered patients in Dagenham. Its services include diagnosis and treatment, disease screening, health promotion, long-term condition management and referrals to specialist services. Patients can access appointments, prescriptions and test results, with online consultation available for non-urgent medical and administrative requests.
The practice operates from purpose-built premises with wide doors and ramps where needed. Its multidisciplinary team includes GPs, nurses, physician associates, clinical pharmacists, healthcare assistants and administrative staff. Alongside routine primary care, the centre offers minor surgery, joint injections, contraception services and childhood immunisation, linking patients with wider community and hospital care.
Clinical facilities
The centre lists eight consultation rooms, including rooms for practice nurses and healthcare assistants, as well as a treatment room and a large health education room. These facilities support the range of clinical appointments and procedures delivered at the practice.
Patient involvement
A Patient Participation Group meets two or three times a year to discuss patient needs and the services the centre provides. The practice manager heads this informal group, with the care coordinator and practice manager acting as contacts for patients interested in taking part.
