Excellent attention - always helpful and never rushed.

I have known Dr Ramrakha for over twenty years and I have the highest confidence in him. He is an excellent clinician who has looked after me extremely well. He explains things very clearly and is always friendly and welcoming. I would unhesitatingly recommend him to those seeking a first rate interventional cardiologist.
4.5
Dr Ramrakha listened to my concerns and answered my questions in a manner that I understood. He observed that my ankles were a little swollen. This was something that I had not mentioned.

Very reassuring with a good explanation of the issue.

I see Dr Ramrakha every year for a heart scan , I never feel rushed, he is reassuring and explains everything perfectly. He has a very pleasant manner and always has time to answer any concerns I may have. Anne D.

Firstly I was very pleased that I was able to arrange an appointment with Dr Ramrakha fairly quickly. He was very thorough in examining my recent medical tests at A & E with reference to a recent angina problem. I was pleased that he was going to arrange more tests and amend my medication. After my consultation it made me feel very confident in dealing with Dr Ramrakha
4.5
To the present time, I have only had a preliminary consultation. Some tests have been carried out and more are scheduled. I am optimistic that Dr. Ramrakha will find the cause and hence the cure of my current problem.
5
Very affable, clear and thorough

Punit is an extremely astute and capable cardiologist and enormously popular with his patients As I look after the pipes and he does the pump we have a large number in common. Perhaps the highest recommendation is that he is my cardiologist enabling me to keep my pilots license in the teeth of bureaucratic intransigence over erroneous investigations!
