Dr Ramrakha goes above and beyond one's hightest expectations. I experienced what may have ben a heart incident, subsequently proven otherwise at Wexham Park Hospital A&E. As a duty of care, Dr Ramrakha took great time and trouble to delve into the findings of the hospital and query their decision to reduce my medication. I have now been put back on the dose that he originally recommended. I have unshakable faith in Dr Ramrakha for any heart related matter and medical matters generally.

I asked to be referred back to Dr Ramrakha who I previously saw about six years ago. I am on treatment for blood pressure which is well controlled but I had a previous Echo scan which showed some degree of LVH and I was hoping to be able to have a follow-up scan. Dr Ramrakha received me warmly, he was very polite and established a quick rapport having remembered me from previous. He asked me what my concerns were and he went through my up-to-date medical history and results of tests which had been shared by my GP. He made some suggestions about further investigations including an ECHO and he gave me a good explanation as to why he felt these tests would be useful to have done at this time. He was very professional, informative and reassuring.

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!
