Dr Mark Jenkins

Saw Dr Jenkins today for a biopsy. I was made to feel totally at ease right from the start, and everything was clearly explained to me as it happened. The whole experience alleviated any concerns or stress I had over the procedure, and left me feeling that whatever the outcome is, I have been in good hands.

I’m black with dark skin and I’ve been suffering with acne and acne scars on my face, neck and upper body since I was 14 years old. I’ve tried every single method, from medical to natural products. I’ve changed my diet and tried to be the healthiest person possible and nothing ever helped as my skin used to react from every single treatment I’ve done. I’m 25 years old now and after 5 months of treatment using Roaccutane, from the smallest to the heaviest dose, I do not have 1 pimple at all. NOT ONE. My skin is clean !! The texture is amazing and my confidence now is levelling up every day. And weirdly enough, even knowing that the acne scars takes years to fade, I can see a huge difference too. It’s truly amazing. Dr. Jenkins really came through. He didn’t only listened to me but he actually heard me. Before starting the treatment he explained every single detail of it and during the treatment as well, he always made sure I was doing fine with the treatment. Dr. Jenkins it’s not the type of doctor who is there just to get paid. He truly gives everything to help you and looks after you properly.

Dr Jenkins is a great doctor who makes appointments relaxed. He explains fully next steps and what to expect. He is kind and understanding

Dr Jenkins took the time to get to know me and really listened to all my concerns. I felt in very safe hands and have come out of my appointment feeling confident!

Dr Jenkins is a truly excellent GP. My father was incredibly fortunate to have him as his GP when Dad moved to a local care home. Seamlessly, Dr Jenkins took over Dad's care and the management of Dad's many complex ailments. And we, Dad's children, were immensely fortunate to have Dr Jenkins caring for our father. When we contacted Dr Jenkins, he responded at least within 24 hours, and normally sooner than that. When we spoke to him, he had a clear, knowledgeable comprehension of Dad's issues and gave us the time on the phone to discuss everything we wanted to talk about. He had the experience and the professionalism to discuss with us, the decisions that had to be made to best care for Dad, and he also gave us the confidence to make those decisions. If Dr Jenkins had concerns, he didn't hesitate to contact us and he was always incredibly kind and immensely professional. He did everything he could to care for Dad and indeed to care for us as well. His explanations were clear and Dr Jenkins made it surprisingly easy, for example, to discuss Dad's end of life care plan. Following that discussion, Dr Jenkins made sure that the correct drugs were available to Dad on site, to keep Dad pain free should he need swiftly, to switch his care to palliative care. Having taken every step to keep Dad well, when Dad's health finally failed, Dr Jenkins arrived at the care home, within maybe half an hour of us contacting him. He supported the 4 of us children, gently explaining what was wrong with Dad and breaking the news to all of us that Dad wasn't going to pull through this illness. We will be forever grateful to Dr Jenkins for discussing this with us so kindly and helping us to come to the tough decision not to send Dad to hospital, but to give Dad palliative care at the care home, so keeping Dad in familiar surroundings where he could be kept comfortable and where we could be with him when he died. Even after Dad died, Dr Jenkins made sure we could collect Dad's Certificate of Death quickly to help us to fulfil Dad's wish to donate his brain to medical research. We'll always be so very grateful to you Dr Jenkins, for everything. We'd also like to take this opportunity to thank the reception staff at Oxshott Medical Practice who were always incredibly kind and immensely efficient.

Dr Jenkins has made my experience really stress free and I enjoy going to my appointments. He is really kind and has made me feel as relaxed as possible whilst being on my medication. Would definitely recommend!

Dr Jenkins is the most helpful doctor I have ever seen. He is understanding, explains everything really well and is always very friendly!

I would highly recommend Dr Jenkins! He is the best Doctor I’ve ever been to see and been treated by. Before seeing Dr Jenkins I felt so conscious of my skin but in the first couple of minutes of my first appointment Dr Jenkins made me feel so at ease and comfortable by being so welcoming, understanding and genuinely having an interest in helping me. Amazing sense of humour, extremely knowledgeable, kind and easy to talk to about any concerns you have about medication. Really easy to book appointments with and without any long wait to see him when you arrive. Best doctor ever!

Dr Jenkins is the GP you would design if you could genetically engineer a GP. He is kind, a good listener, very smart/intuitive, is friendly, good use of humour, genuinely cares, and always has good/balanced suggestions - and fully transparent on how he thinks, what he knows, and where he's making educated assumptions/using judgement. Really excellent all round.

Dr Jenkins has always treated Poppy with great respect and empathy. He really listens and tailors his communication so that she can understand what he thinks the problem is and the plan of action for her care. He is a constant on the practice which means he is aware of ongoing issues and genuinely remembers what has been going on. I highly recommend Dr Jenkins - he is skilled, empathetic and a talented communicator.
