Annual checkup with Dr Kingswood. As always made to feel welcome and everything clearly explained taking the time to answer any questions.
In general my doctor is very approachable and answers all my queries and does the upmost best he can to provide me with the care I need.
Dr. Kingswood explains all aspects of the condition in layman’s terms and gives the patient confidence to manage their health better.
Explained in detail and not rushed his prognosis from all the tests. Dr Kingswood also explained the various tablets and his reason for adding an additional tablet.
I have been under the care of Dr Kingswood for many years. I specifically travel to London to attend my appointments. He is extremely knowledgeable in his field of Nephrology and also in specifically inherited genetic conditions. He is very approachable
I have seen Dr Kingswood for over 10 years now. He is a fantastic doctor and very reassuring.
I saw Dr Kingswood today with my elderly father. He took time to listen and explain. He has an excellent ‘bedside manner’ and is a very thorough consultant. We will be seeing him again for a follow up appointment
How refreshing to see a doctor that is kind and listened . Would not hesitate to recommend him .
