Dr Ramakrishnan is an outstanding consultant who cares deeply about his patients. He has previously diagnosed and treated my daughter and so was my 'go to' when i started with gastro issues. He takes time to explain procedures and results. I would definitely recommend him.

Dr Ramakrishnan was very professional in all aspects of his work. He was very engaged and listened to what I has to say. The whole process was explained very well and he gave me reassurance. I would recommend him to anyone needing this type of help.

Dr Ramakrishnan was very personable and listened to my issues and explained everything he was going to do. We went through the various tests and procedures and after all was done we met to go over a plan. I asked many questions which he answered and didn’t feel he was trying to hurry me through the process. I would recommend him to anyone in need of a gastroenterologist.

Dr Ramakrishnan was easy to talk to and took time to listen to me describing my symptoms. He fully explained what he proposed to do, and was extremely thorough taking me through the results of scans and the gastroscopy and colonoscopy, and from there recommending the way forward for me.

Profile

After my basic qualification I have completed more than 15 years of practice in the field of Gastroenterology and General medicine covering all aspects of this specialty.

I have been practising as a Consultant Gastroenterologist since 2007 and have a specialist interest in all aspects of endoscopy, gastroenterology, liver and pancreatic disease.

I have a keen interest in service development, teaching and training.

As endoscopy lead I established a brand new three room endoscopy unit at Warrington and Halton Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and led the team to achieve national accreditation (JAG) in 2009. I am now the lead for the Endoscopy Unit at Spire Cheshire Hospital and In this role led the team in this hospital to achieve national accreditation (JAG) in 2016.

I have been the lead for Advancing Quality programme (AQuA) for the Trust and have participated actively in achieving a high quality of care across both medical and surgical divisions of the hospital.

As the joint lead for management of alcohol related liver disease for the AQuA programme I have streamlined guidelines for evidence based high quality management of this condition.

I teach all levels of trainees nurses and colleagues to update them of recent advances and techniques.

I am currently the lead for research in Gastroenterology for the Trust and we are actively recruiting to several NIHR clinical trials and have started recruiting in commercial trials.

As a keen family man, I enjoy my spare time interacting with children and travelling as much as possible. I also enjoy many sports, particularly cricket.

I pride myself in being very open with patients and am keen to promote a patient centred approach to managing their illnesses.
