I have been seeing Dr Ramrakha over quite a few years and find hm very approachable and extremely knowledgeable. He speaks in language that you understand and always puts you at ease. I would thoroughly recommend him.
This was an initial visit. I asked my GP to refer me to Dr Ramrakha because I had had two recent visits to A & E with chest pains and CT scans had shown problems with my heart. This was followed by an echocardiogram and 48 hour tape, but then I was referred back to my GP without any follow up from cardiology. Dr Ramrakha was very professional. He took details of my symptoms, past medical history and medication, as well as having access to the echocardiogram I had last year. He explained to me what the results of the echocardiogram showed, and has arranged for me to have another one to see if there has been any change within the last year. He diagnosed angina and has arranged for me to have an angiogram, as well as prescribing medication to alleviate my symptoms. During my initial appointment Dr Ramrakha has given me a diagnosis, prescribed medication to alleviate my symptoms, arranged for further investigations to be carried out , and a management plan for the way forward.
The visit was handled superbly. I felt comfortable at every stage of the examination. The doctor had a good sense of humour, which always helps. I couldn’t have asked for more.
I attended a consultation with Dr Ramrakha in May. Having been under his care for more than 20 years, I continue to be impressed by his professionalism, expertise, and commitment to patient care. During this recent appointment, he took the time to listen carefully to my concerns, explain my condition and treatment options clearly, and answer all my questions in a reassuring and understandable manner. His long-term knowledge of my medical history allows for a highly personalized approach, which I greatly value. I left the appointment feeling well informed, confident in my care plan, and reassured about my ongoing treatment. I am very grateful for the consistently high standard of care I have received over the years.
A very useful appointment, where Dr Ramrakha's professionalism and caring manor were very apparent. He listened to my concerns, gave me clear explanations and an updated management plan for the future, as well as clearly explaining when to return.
The experience was very comfortable and in all aspects extremely reassuring.
very professional and a little old school in manner which I found reassuring and welcomed .The consultation and subsequent follow up correspondence gives me great confidence that diagnosis and subsequent treatments will be well researched.

RadiologistPunit 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!
