Dr Ramakrishnan is a wonderful consultant. I have had numerous consultations with Mr Ramakrishnan he is professional and treats patients as they wish to be treated. Not only has he taken great care of my health over the past few years he has been so lovely and caring at each appointment. He is displays great empathy, he is a great listener and immediately puts me at ease with any concerns over any health issues I have had whilst under his care .

Truly lucky to have found Dr Ram. He is attentive, approachable and empathetic. His experience shone through in the way he took in my entire medical history and offered to treat me holistically, rather than simply address the current symptom. I felt reassured and fully informed, right from the first consultation, through my gastroscopy and to walking me through the results. Will gladly continue to recommend Dr Ram in a heartbeat.

Dr Ram is a fantastic Doctor. He has great patience and listens to your concerns. I don’t particularly like taking medication so he suggested other methods that could help my condition, through those methods I discovered what was causing my problem and I am now mainly symptom free taking no medication. I cannot recommend Dr Ram highly enough.

Dr Ram is marvellous, he listens to any issues and deals with each question or issue retrospectively. He makes you feel comfortable to talk about things and confident about any procedures that may have to happen. I totally trust Dr Rams judgement.

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.
