I have been attending Dr Ram’s clinic since 2009 when I was first diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis, then in 2011 when I was diagnosed with Auto Immune Liver Disease. Dr Ram has always taken the time to listen carefully to me and is able to explain my test results and treatment required in great detail, in a simple and straightforward way. By taking the time to understand my symptoms he has been excellent at providing an accurate diagnosis and suitable treatments for me. He is also one of the friendliest and helpful doctors I have ever met and I would not hesitate to recommend him.

Every time I visit Dr Ramakrishnan I get 100% of his time and attention. He has been looking after me since 2010. Before this I had seen many doctors from around the country. Only ever have I felt listened to and understood by Dr Ram. He goes above and beyond in his care. Knowing me and the pain I go through he will tell me to call his secratery any time I need him. I have always had a reply and been seen in clinic if needs be. This doctor has made me feel normal again in a time I was at a all time low. I owe this to him and his understanding personal approach to his patients. I know when I'm in his care he will do any thing to help me.

I was very ill and had been for many months when I first went to a consultation with Dr Ramakrishnan, I found him thorough, knowledgeable & understanding. Under his care my health has slowly improved to the point where I am now able to work part time & am pain free for the first time in over a year. His cutting edge knowledge of the latest medication has been invaluable to my wellbeing. I have no hesitation in giving him a five star rating in all aspects of my care & would recommend him unreservedly.

in 2008 I was referred to Dr. Ram at Halton hospital after experiencing unexplained
symptoms. Dr Ram made a tentative diagnosis followed by conformation after a liver
biopsy. I was given medication for auto immune hepatitis which was successful for
three years before I rejected this medication and became jaundiced and admitted to
hospital where I found Dr Ram showed great concern and gave me attention as if I was his priority. My experience with Dr Ram is one of friendship and trust as he has always showed me concern and treated me with honesty
thank you Dr Ram--David O

A very understanding consultant highly recommended. He has changed my life. I have been suffering from ulcerative colitis for fifty year but since being cared for by Dr Ram I have been free from my symptoms for more than six years. I have total confidence in him.
