  2. Review titled Excellent care

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Louise Hart - Posted on 07 October 2024

    I don't normally feel compelled to write a review, however the level of care I've received from the practice nurse at the Kensington road surgery has been exceptional. She fully listened to my concerns, reacting with empathy, compassion and professionalism, nothing was too much, and the support i was given went above and beyond, I'm truly thankful to her and the lovely man on reception, who was extremely helpful. Always welcomed me with a smile and even remembered me each time I had to attend the surgery, such a refreshing change! Often at these places you can be just a number, just a measure of performance, however the practice nurse couldn't be further from that, she's a real star and an asset to Kensington road surgery and can’t thank her enough.

  3. Review titled Excellent service

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    I saw the GP last week because of a knee problem which restricted my ability to walk. The doctors was very thorough in his examination and questioning, recommended an X-ray and typed the referral form while I was there. This enabled me to have an X-ray quite quickly. Once the doctor received the X-ray report he contacted me to say he was recommending an orthopaedic referral. That has now been done so I can now attend a hospital for treatment. Both the doctor and the surgery were very efficient and helpful throughout

  4. Review titled Amazing - Drs Visit

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Suzanne - Posted on 04 September 2024

    I was amazed when the practice rang me to offer same day face to face appointments with the Dr following a conversation with reception the day before (saying none were available). The ratio of Drs to Patients I know is at an all time problem. And I got a phone call asking if I could come in at some time options (which I could!) and the medical concerns / prescription updates I’ve been meaning to request for over 6 months have all been sorted. Thank you so much!!

    My recent visit to the surgery was calm and pleasant The staff were helpful and friendly. I only waited for a few minutes before being seen by a practitioner. I would thoroughly recommend this practice to new patients

  6. Review titled Improved care and approach

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Juliette - Posted on 29 August 2024

    I've seen a marked improvement in the surgery in the last couple of months or so. It had previously been very difficult to get an appointment and there would be painfully long queues to get through to a receptionist. This has changed and the receptionist staff are extremely helpful. In particular, a male member of staff on the reception team is an asset to the surgery.

  9. Review titled Terrible Practice

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 09 July 2024

    This surgery has continued to go downhill over the last couple of years. So difficult to get an appointment. Having to chase my own blood results, despite on the app it says ‘abnormal, contact patient’. No contact from surgery a week later and when I try and get an appointment to discuss, I’m told I’ll have to phone back again the next day because there’s no more appointments left for that day. Even though I phone at 08.30, number 25 in the queue, then they cut me off. Absolutely shocking and would not recommend. Will be finding another GP surgery.

    Dear Anonymous I have to disagree with your review. In the last 12 months the surgery has recruited 4 additional clinical staff including 2 GPs, a prescribing paramedic and a prescribing Advanced Nurse Practitioner. We also house other ARRS staff via our PCN. The practice also has dedicated blood result clinics running every few weeks. If your result is abnormal but within tolerance it may be that the GP will need to speak with you, however should your result be urgent then we will contact you sooner to discuss. Regarding your telephone wait time, as you have decided to remain anonymous I cannot help with this, however if you would like to contact me with your details we now have a telephone system that can interrogate and report on many things including wait times. It would also tell us how the call was terminated. I am sure we did not cut you off as you state. When all the surgery appointments have been taken for the day we can signpost to other services such as walk in centre, secondary care care or should you be housebound then the Paramedic Visiting Service. if your problem is acute and urgent we would pass this to our oncall GP to triage the next most appropriate steps. Again if you would like to identify yourself and contact me I can look into this further Thank You Julie Mayall Practice Manager

    I recently had two consultations at this surgery with different GP's and felt taken care of. Both took the time to listen to my concerns and compassionate in their approach. The reception staff were welcoming and efficient. Thank you Kensington Road Surgery
