A lovely caring doctor, he explained everything clearly and made sure I understood what tests etc would be done. He answered all my questions nothing was too much trouble. I came out of the consultation feeling a lot happier than when I had gone in.

This doctor explained each stage fully, answered my questions and addressed my concerns. The actual procedure, which was embarrassing and worrying for me, was carried out with extreme care leaving me reassured and with no problematic after effects. He was very personable and approachable.

Professional, knowledgeable, caring, likeable and diligent summarises my experiences with Dr Ramakrishnan. This man goes the extra mile. I presented with a series of complex conditions in 2011 which transpired to be autoimmune related.
I had previously seen other consultants who had not been able to identify my condition, yet I remained unwell.
A thorough history was taken, biopsy, tests, bloods etc and within weeks I was diagnosed with PBC/ autoimmune condition.
Medication was prescribed and I attend regular checkups. I have my life back!
Jan 14: following an unrelated illness, I had subsequent autoimmune related issues and I wasted no time in getting an appointment to see Dr Ram, who yet again has identified the source of my illness and again has got my condition back on track.
Highly recommended and Thank you !
