After what was an extremely difficult few months of investigations, I was referred to Dr Ramakrishnan. His care has been second to none. He has been patient with all of my questions and always made me feel totally at ease. In my opinion he is the best in his field and I wouldn’t be where I am now without his expertise and medical opinion.

As a teenage patient of DrRam I found him understanding, empathetic and positive following my diagnosis of coeliac disease. He understood how my diagnosis may affect aspects of my life as a 17 year old girl and was able to provide good advice and support. He made me feel comfortable during my consultation and especially during the gastroscopy which he made a painless experience. I would recommend Dr Ram and look forward to seeing him at future appointments.

Dr Ram is a fantastic doctor I have been his patient for the last 11/12 years. I travel from Chester to my appointment because he is very thorough, caring and always listens to what I have to say.

Dr Ram is the best consultant I could wish for to guide and help me through my Crohn's journey. Could not wish for a better doctor who’s very approachable, caring and knowledgeable to help me through my difficult illness.

Specialises in

  • Gastroenterology

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.
