  1. Review titled Great Practice

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by lindaB - Posted on 26 March 2024

    I feel very fortunate to be registered with this practice.,i never have a problem in getting an appointment when required and the online triage system works very well . I messaged at 4 pm today and got a phone call asking me to come in to be examined,i don’t think you can get better than that. If you need to be seen you will be , sometimes it’s easier for the patient and the doctor to get a phone call. Last year one of the doctors saved my husband’s life as she insisted he went to have an ecg and blood test before just increasing his medication it turned out he had suffered from a silent heart attack.

    Dear Linda Thank you very much for the feedback that you have given. I will share this with the whole team here at Kings. I am glad that you have tried our new triage system and that you found the overall experience a positive one. We are continuously trying to improve patient experience when contact us for an appointment and feel that the new system has been beneficial towards patient experience. We are now able to offer a wide range of appointments including ones at our hub in Buckhurst way and with local pharmacists in addition to those from our Kings Avenue Surgery. We always reflect on feedback given (both good and bad) and will continue to look for ways to improve the service that we offer. Thank you again, Yours Sincerely Gary Thorogood Practice Manager

  2. Review titled inefficient practice

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    Having told Kings that I did not want to be referred to a particular ineffective outside healthcare agency GP, they referred me again. He was unhelpful and unfriendly. Whats more. I can't find any qualifications for him.

  3. Review titled Fantastic practice

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 07 March 2023

    Rang for an appointment but there weren’t any so told to complete online form. Received call from practice that evening offering an appointment for the next morning. Spoke to doctor and referral to hospital made within an hour. Have been a patient for over 30 years and it is an amazing practice.

  4. Review titled First Class Service

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Paul Alister Buckley - Posted on 08 November 2022

    I rang the surgery this morning at 9.30 for an appointment. I was seen at 9.45! Even King Charles couldn't get better than that. It might have been my lucky day but generally I can get an appointment without waiting more than a day.
