Review titled Empathy and professionalism
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Roxenham - Posted on 05 January 2024
Practice has some new colleagues that have transformed the patient care. The new receptionists are excellent, efficient and very effective. The new nursing staff are very knowledgeable, supportive and empathetic to your needs. The practice as a whole has always been excellent, however the recent changes have been for the better and really making the experience more efficient and enjoyable.

Review titled Care and compassion
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Susan Carter - Posted on 29 December 2023
Things have certainly improved at the practice since a certain Doctor has arrived. Phone calls are answered quicker and the attitude of the reception staff is more positive and helpful. Just before Christmas we as a family lost a close member of our family and the care and compassion shown to us by several members of the team but especially to the Practice Director. Thank you for being you.

Review titled Big improvements noticed
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Kerri - Posted on 28 December 2023
I just wanted to say how much of an improvement I’ve seen within the practice. It’s so much easier to get through on the phone and the staff are always really lovely and helpful now. The new chap on the front desk is lovely and the Acp I’ve seen is just wonderful. I felt like she’d read up on me and had time for me when I saw her today. Great addition

Review titled Greatly improved and loved practice
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Linda Holmes - Posted on 11 October 2023
I joined the practice in 1976, and it has seen my self and my family through the joys and troubles of life. The last few years have been bumpy for the practice and it has saddened me to see it going through such a turbulent time. Last week I visited the practice and was heartened to see such a visible change. From the reception to the doctors surgery it felt better. Booking my appointment was easy the appointment was confirmed by text, the waiting area felt more organised. The new doctor was lovely and it was so reassuring to know he was a permanent member of the team. I’ve had more communication from the surgery booking my blood test review without me even contacting them. I feel reassured that the tide is changing and the practice will return to the friendly reliable service it always was. Kensington road surgery has always served its community well because of its personal approach to its patients, it’s wonderful to see it retaining that approach but embracing more efficient and effective methods of delivery. I look forward to future developments and more improvements.

Review titled Appointment issue
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 02 August 2023
Despite ringing for the last 5 days and spending hours on the phone waiting to talk to a receptionist unable to book an appointment I call at 8.30 and by the time I get through all appointments have gone. Told to queue outside at 8.30 - great if you're well enough but I have mobility issues and can't do this! Have been with the practice a long time and have never known it as bad as this!

Rated 1 star out of 5
by Laura Siracusa - Posted on 18 July 2023
In the past 6 months we have experineces very poor service from the pratice. We have not been informed of test request from the hospital ( last week we have been notified of an test request on 25 may from children outpatience - 2 months late) not provided with appropriate container for the test, denied the possibility find alternative solutions. The staff is not friendly and communication is poor

Dear Laura As you are aware from our complaint response via NHSE, General Practice do not hold these containers and we went above and beyond to assist you. If a hospital orders any test it is their responsibility to report on that test not the GP. This was all detailed in our response. Julie Mayall Practice Manager

Dear anonymous I am saddened to read this review however as this is now 12 months ago I am confident that our systems have improved. Kensington Road have recruited 4 additional clincal staff and are out to recruitment again. I cannot comment further as you have chosen to remain anonymous, however should you wish to contact me directly I can look into this for you
