After discussing my extreme anxiety about my gastroscopy procedure I was made to feel completely at ease. On each of the occasions I met the doctor he was attentive and responded to all of my concerns clearly and without causing me any anxiety .Should I ever need further treatment for gastro related issues I would have no hesitation in seeking treatment from this consultant.

I have never met such a kind patient doctor a jewel in Warrington Hospital. All my tests and in patient appointments were dealt with with outstanding efficiency. My follow up appointment was conducted in a great manner Dr Ramakrishnan explained all my results showing me on screen what had been done and asked me if i had any questions. I could only wish more doctors were like him and i would recommend him to anyone.

I have had a digestive problem for about 20 years and have seen various consultants around the Warrington area. I have had many different tests but usually left my consultation appointments feeling that I had been sent away because they did not know what to do with me.
I met Dr Ram who talked to me and listened to what I had to say. He tested for things that other consultants hadn't looked at and explained the results in understandable terms.
My condition cannot be cured but thanks to Dr Ram I am now clearer about what is happening with my digestive system and I am able to control the symptoms with dietary changes. I now feel much healthier and able to cope with it.
I would recommend Dr Ramakrishnan to anyone and would like to thank him for his help.

I was admitted to Warrington Hospital when I was more ill than I realised. He told me then that he would look after me very well and has continued to do so. He answers all my questions patiently and throughly and reassuringly. He has continued to address any worries I have had during my treatment and his calm professionalism has been exemplary. Dr Ramakrishnan has time for all his patients and I have always had quality consultations. I cannot fault my treatment by Dr Ramakrishnan or the Hospital.
