Dr Ramrakha established the Chiltern Hills Heart Practice, Buckinghamshire's first private cardiology clinic, in 2005, and the clinic has always been highly rated by the Care Quality Commission. He co-founded the London Heart Practice in 2020, which provided quality heart care throughout the coronavirus pandemic.

Dr Ramrakha is also well-known in the scientific research world, having written several medical textbooks, including the Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine, the Oxford Handbook of Acute Medicine, and the Oxford Handbook of Cardiology, as well as peer-reviewed journals.

A last minute appointment before I went on holiday - generously squeezed into Dr Ramrakha's diary. He and his team at the Chiltern carried out thorough tests which reassured me in the short term, and follow up is planned for after my return.

I recently had a review appointment with Dr Ramrakha, which I was able to book just over a week in advance. The whole process was smooth and efficient. During the consultation, Dr Ramrakha was extremely thorough in both his questioning and his explanations. At no point did I feel rushed or like my questions were trivial — he gave me the time and space to discuss everything I needed. I left the appointment feeling relaxed, reassured, and confident about my condition. I would highly recommend him as a cardiologist.

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!
