I have been under the care of Dr Ram since 2007 with my crohns disease. He has been exceptional throughout and I consider him my hero and I have complete faith in him when it comes to managing my disease. I really cannot think of how he could improve his care when he already gives 110%.

Dr Ram is very approachable and listened carefully when I explained my symptoms. He organised my treatment in a straightforward manner and checked my understanding at each stage. He also liased with my G.P. promptly after each of my two consultations and arranged follow up care. He is a lovely caring man and a highly competent Consultant.

I was referred to Dr Ramakrishnan and found him to be friendly and very professional. Dr Ram carefully explained the procedures and I would thoroughly recommend him.
My GP even commented that I had received 5 star treatment.. what more can I add

Dr Ramakrishnan was obviously very professional but also very friendly and easy to discuss my problems with. He was also very thorough, particularly organising follow up care to try and ensure there should be no problems in future.
The procedures themselves, whilst not pleasant, were carried out with concern to provide as little discomfort as possible.

I have had a reoccurring gastro problem for many years investigated by other doctors
without success, after seeing Dr Ram he left no stone unturned and full investigations took place culminating with a tablet endoscopy (pill cam), i was initially very concerned about the procedure, but after having it it was so easy and not at all uncomfortable, i would recommend the procedure highly.
Dr Ram is an excellent doctor who is very patient friendly.
