WHY BASUTO
Why Kensington Patients Choose Basuto
Kensington has no shortage of private medical clinics, but most are specialist practices — dermatology, aesthetics, orthopaedics. Finding a private GP who provides genuine primary care with continuity and same-day access is surprisingly difficult in the W8 and SW7 postcodes.
Basuto Medical Centre in Parsons Green fills that gap. A short journey south on the District line — approximately 12 minutes from High Street Kensington — gives Kensington residents access to a full-service private GP practice. We provide same-day appointments, extended 20–30 minute consultations, comprehensive health screening, and a named GP who knows your medical history.
For Kensington families, the combination of convenience and quality matters. Our GPs see adults and children, provide childhood immunisations, and handle urgent paediatric concerns on the same day. The clinic’s location near Parsons Green makes it easily accessible without the traffic and parking challenges of central Kensington.
Many of our Kensington patients are internationally mobile — they need a GP who can coordinate care across time zones, provide medical reports for international schools, and manage prescriptions efficiently. Basuto provides this level of personalised primary care.

Patient Reviews
What Our Patients Say
★★★★★
Called at 9am, seen by 11am. The GP spent a full 25 minutes with me, arranged blood tests and a referral. My NHS wait would have been 3 weeks minimum. Worth every penny.
— Tom R.
★★★★★
I needed a sick note urgently for work and couldn’t get an NHS appointment. Basuto saw me same day, the GP was thorough and professional, and I had my note within the hour.
— Claire D.
★★★★★
The difference between 7 minutes at the NHS and 30 minutes here is night and day. The doctor actually listened, examined me properly, and explained everything. I’ve now registered as a member.
— James P.
