It was a relief to discuss my symptoms and concerns for my continually high BP. I feel I should have been properly investigated for my high BP years ago to get a proper diagnosis. Dr Ramrakha was very patient and listened well, understanding my concerns and giving me a plan moving forwards.

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!
