I asked for a second opinion after an unpleasant experience at another hospital . On my first visit I was treated with the greatest respect, listened to and then Dr Ramàkrishnan explained all the details of what was probably the problem slowly and with the help of diagrams so making everything very clear without any complicated medical speak. I have had a scan and blood tests with the results posted to me. Today in clinic once again a very pleasant consultation, and I am now fully aware of my problem añd what treatment is necessary. I would highly recommend this consultant to anyone with gastric problems. Ann Culliford with grateful thanks.

Dr Ram is one of the best doctors I have had the pleasure of meeting. I had my second consultation with him today, equally as good as the first. He completely puts you at ease, taking care to explain everything in detail and reassuring you all the time. He is very friendly and caring and I just wish all doctors were the same. Keep up the good work Dr Ram!!

Dr Ram answered all my questions with detail and understanding, and made sure I understood my condition. I felt like I knew what was going on with my treatment and investigations the whole time, and he appreciated my anxieties. Each procedure I had, he came to my room to explain what he had found and what he was going to do, I felt very confident with his diagnosis. I would not hesitate to recommend him to any of my friends and family and will continue to consult him if need be in the future.

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.
