Life moves fast—like, really fast. Between juggling work, family chaos, school drop-offs, endless errands, and even making sure the dog gets fed (again!), it’s no wonder our own health sometimes takes a backseat. But what if taking care of yourself didn’t have to feel like just another task on the to-do list?

During the hustle and bustle of life, we need to remember that taking care of ourselves isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. Our health and happiness fuel everything we do, and making ourselves a priority ensures we have the energy and resilience to manage life’s ups and downs.

That’s where LCH Health and Community Services (LCH) comes in. At LCH, patients aren’t just numbers on a chart—they are seen, heard, and valued. With a team of providers who take the time to understand the needs of each patient, LCH delivers care that’s all about you—personalized, compassionate, and designed to help individuals and families not just get by, but truly thrive.

Comprehensive Care for the Whole Family

LCH Health and Community Services offers high-quality healthcare that meets our unique needs in Chester County. Whether you need a routine check-up, specialized care, or support navigating the healthcare system, LCH is here for you. With three locations—Oxford, Kennett Square, and West Grove—LCH provides a full range of services, making sure that comprehensive healthcare is accessible to all.

At LCH’s Oxford and Kennett Square locations, patients can get regular check-ups, help managing ongoing health issues like diabetes and high blood pressure, and advice on staying healthy. Soon, primary care will also be available at the West Grove specialty center, expanding LCH’s commitment to holistic healthcare.

Providers Who See You for Who You Are

Healthcare should be more than just a quick appointment—it should be a conversation, a partnership between providers and patients. At LCH, our amazing healthcare team isn’t just here to treat you—they’re here to listen, collaborate, and create care plans that fit your lifestyle.

When you have an appointment at LCH, while the world continues moving and the distractions and responsibilities we all juggle are still there, in that moment, there is one focus—YOU. LCH is committed to truly seeing their patients, ensuring they receive the quality care they deserve.

A Team That’s Part of the Community

What makes LCH special is its people. The LCH staff aren’t just healthcare professionals—they are neighbors, friends, and fellow community members. They live here, raise their families here, and understand the unique needs of Chester County residents. When you visit LCH, you’re not just visiting a doctor’s office; you’re entering a space where you are known and cared for by people who share your community and values.

Specialized Care Close to Home

Beyond primary care, LCH offers specialized services for you and your family. At the West Grove specialty center, patients have access to women’s health services, pediatric care, dental care, and behavioral health support through the Pia Center for Behavioral Health.

LCH has a dedicated women’s health team. We are here to support those in our community with essential healthcare services — whether for prenatal care, annual exams, or guidance on reproductive health.

Meanwhile, LCH’s pediatric providers ensure that even the youngest members of the community receive the highest level of care. Pediatric visits include regular check-ups, sick visits, and important health screenings to help children grow up strong and healthy. LCH is committed to supporting families at every stage of life!

More Than Just a Health Center

LCH doesn’t stop at medical care—it also provides essential support services to help patients navigate the often-complex world of healthcare. At each location, patients can receive behavioral health counseling, assistance with health insurance enrollment, and guidance on accessing local specialists and community service providers. LCH ensures that individuals and families have the tools they need to maintain their health, both inside and outside of our exam rooms.

One of LCH’s newest additions, the LCH Pharmacy in Kennett Square, is a game-changer for patient convenience. By offering an in-house pharmacy, LCH makes it easier for patients to access the medications they need without additional stress. This initiative reflects LCH’s dedication to making healthcare truly patient-centered.

LCH is proud to be a healthcare home for everyone. Whether you have Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, or no insurance at all, LCH is here to serve you. At LCH we want every patient to receive the care they need, regardless of their financial situation.  We're here for everyone!
