Reassuring explanation. I had a problem at first as I could not enter phone number.
Dr Rampat was very pleasant, he explained everything clearly and answered all my queries. He ordered further tests and trialled a change to my medication with a full explanation as to why. The new medication he prescribed resolved my symptoms and Dr Rampat clearly explained how the medication had controlled my blood pressure and heart rate.

Met Dr Rampat earlier today to gain a second opinion regarding a Pace and Ablation procedure that I have been offered. Dr Rampat outlined the procedure and his suggestions as to alternative options were clear and precise. We came away from the appointment knowing what direction to take! Thanks Alan
