Reading Urology was established in 2002 by the consultant urologists in Reading. Having been based at one of the local private hospitals for the first nine years they moved into their own premises at 11 Kendrick Road in October 2011.
The clinic providing all out-patient treatment is based in a completely refurbished Edwardian house and is managed by Berkshire Health Limited. It has four consulting rooms, a treatment room, reception area and admin offices spread over two floors with a lift and disabled access. There is plenty of free parking on site and also on Kendrick Road.
The facility is certificated by the Care Quality Commission to provide all out-patient treatment and is registered with the Information Commissioners Office as a registered data controller.
There are now five urology consultants, each specialising in their own particular field of excellence as well as offering general urology services. Appointments are available during the working week including evenings and on Saturday mornings. All five consultants hold substantive appointments at the Royal Berkshire NHS Foundation Trust hospital in Reading, conveniently situtated within a three minute walk.
All in-patient and day-case general anaesthetic theatre work is carried out at The Berkshire Independent Hospital which has an extensive range of medical and surgical services including three modern well-equipped operating theatres, a high dependency unit and a dedicated ‘continence physiotherapy’ service.
CARE QUALITY COMMISSION PROVIDER ID No: 1-229310156
INFORMATION COMMISSIONERS REG No: Z2746205 Quality care As a team of specialists our Consultants believe that the best way to deliver quality is by moving from a single-handed approach towards multi-disciplinary care.
Reading Urology Partnership supports the strong belief that high quality Urological care should be delivered by a team of complementary specialists to ensure a high level of clinical governance.
With many years of clinical expertise between them, each consultant in the Partnership is an expert in their sub-specialist area and practises medicine to the highest standards while still offering a comprehensive general urology service.
Emergency TreatmentThe clinic at Kendrick Road does not have an emergency (A&E) department and we do not offer an emergency service.
All patients are seen by appointment only.
If your GP has said that you need to be seen urgently and it is within clinic hours (Monday-Friday 9a.m. – 5 p.m.) please call us on 0118 9207040 and we will try and arrange a consultation for you as soon as we are able. However this may not be possible on the same day.
If you need to be seen as an emergency or if it is outside clinic hours, you should attend Accident & Emergency at The Royal Berkshire NHS Hospital in Reading (or your nearest NHS hospital) without delay. To do otherwise may put your own health at risk.
Once you have been seen on the NHS your treatment can always be transferred to the private sector if appropriate and if you so wish.
