I can’t thank Venkat Ramakrishnan enough for his care and expertise over the last 3 years. He is a truly remarkable man. He made a terrible time in my life bearable. He was always available if I needed him. When I was in the Nuffield hospital he was there to check on me everyday. He definitely goes the extra mile and even rang me at home to check on me after one operation. In my eyes he is the best in his field and his caring nature does not compare to anyone else. He has an amazing team. Thank you again for everything that you did for me.

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan,

Thank you for taking such good care of me (even when I was difficult!) You are a wonderful doctor, women are better off because of you. Thank you …”

I had a breast reduction one year ago with Professor Ramakrishnan. Professor and his team are wonderful. Everyone that looked after me did so with kindness and consideration. From the first day I walked into the consultation room to meet Professor until today it has been a positive experience and I am in no doubt that if I ever needed any more advice or help they would be there for me.

I am completely delighted with my results. Professor Ramakrishnan is top of his field and an absolute true professional and gentleman. I would wholeheartedly recommend anyone thinking of having this procedure to go to the Prof knowing you are in very safe hands. Thank you for taking such good care of me. My new smaller boobs have made me much happier and stopped my backache.

1st March 2018

From my initial consultation, through the process leading up to my procedure and post procedure, I felt confident and comfortable with his due care and attention given to me throughout. I am delighted with the outcome of my procedure and would highly recommend Mr Ramakrishnan.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Prof Ramakrishnan, very thorough consultations prior to surgery which he advised to take due time considering surgery as it was cosmetic and not medically necessary. I was extremely pleased with the outcome of surgery and the aftercare provided was extremely good. I have since recommended a friend and my mother.

I had the privilege of being under the care of Mr Ramakrishnan for my recent surgery and I can’t praise his skill, care and professionalism enough. From the moment I walked into my consultation I felt reassured and in capable hands. The surgery itself was a success and. Mr Ramakrisnan and his team provided exceptional post-operative care, ensuring a smooth recovery process. What sets Mr Ramakrishnan apart is not only his remarkable surgical skill but also his compassionate and empathetic approach to patient care. He genuinely cares about patients well-being. I highly recommend Mr Ramakrishnan to anyone seeking a skilled and caring surgeon. He has truly made a positive impact on my life, and I couldn’t be happier with the result.

I had my second operation with mr Ramarishnan in November. I would honestly not go to any other surgeon for any plastic surgery. He is extremely talented, knowledgeable, honest and kind. My surgery was complex and we discussed it on many different consultations prior until we were both completely happy and confident going ahead.

I am thrilled with my results and mr ramakrishnan has been very supportive during the post operative stage. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend mr ramakrishnan to anyone for plastic surgeries. Also my experience as a patient at the nuffield Brentwood has been fabulous, I couldn’t fault the care and services I received.

Thank you mr ramakrishnan for restoring my self confidence.

18th January 2022

From the moment I contacted Mr Ramakrishnan, everything went smooth and felt like this choice was meant to be.

Not only having to face with the shock of diagnosis, living abroad gave me a little choice in the treatment options.  As simultaneous reconstruction was not available in the country I am staying, I opted for a private care with the latest technique and best surgeon in the UK.  My queries were always answered promptly and thoroughly and Mr Ramakrishnan was always helpful and straight to the points.  When I eventually met Mr Ramakrishnan and his team in person, it was very easy to convince myself that I would be in the safe hands.

The team scheduled all the prerequisites for the procedure to be done only one week prior to the surgery so that allowed me to travel out to England as close the date as possible.  All the staff at Nuffield Hospital was exceptionally helpful and friendly and all I needed to do was to concentrate on my recovery.

Mr Ramakrishnan is such a caring and gentle person and his attentiveness was very reassuring. I have not regretted my decision and am truly grateful for what he achieved.

 

Ms T

I was made comfortable from the minete I walk in. Great results and this has given me a confidence boost I needed. Thank you all for everything you have done for me. I’m a whole new woman now.

29th April 2019

Mr Ramakrishnan is exceptional in his service on all levels. His practice is professional and careful. His manner puts a patient at ease as his knowledge and experience is evident. He is respected and held in high regard by the team supporting him. I highly recommend him.

I received very personal and excellent care under Mr Ramakrishnan. He explained everything carefully and with the rest of his team nothing was too much trouble.. Mr Ramakrishnan is an experienced surgeon and has many patients under his care however, he made you feel that he had all the time in the world and you were the only patient he had to worry about. I will be forever grateful for turning a terrible time of my life into something positive which enable me to move forward.

2nd May 2019

From the initial appointment to my final, Mr Ramakrishnan took time to listen to my concerns and was always incredibly open and honest on what to expect from the surgery. A special mention to the two Nurses that support him, who are amazing and so supportive. The surgery has been life changing for me and there are no words I can express how thankful and extatic I am of the results. Thank you. I cannot thank Mr Ramakrishnan enough for his time and skill and also for the support and care I was given by the wonderful nurse’s at Nuffield. I would be happy to recommend Mr Ramakrishnan and his team to anyone.

6th August 2019

Back in 2010 I entrusted Mr Ramakrishnan with a neck and lower jaw facelift. This was my first operation and I was very pleased with the result. Last November I once again required his expertise and he performed an upper blepharoplasty and cheek enhancement using lipofilling. On both occasions I was totally satisfied with the results. Mr Ramakrishnan is the epitome of professionalism, skill, and experience, and a true gentleman in all that he does. He has my own and my husband’s total respect and confidence. He will explain your proposed procedure in detail, and will give an honest opinion and guidance as to the outcome. I would have no hesitation in returning.

9th March 2020

Mr. Ramakrishnan recently removed my breast implants as they had capsulated. I decided not to have replacement implants but was concerned about how I would look afterwards. I need not have worried – I am very happy with the results and the care and attention given to me by Mr. Ramakrishnan. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to others.

22nd May 2021

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan and Team,

Just wanted to say “Thank You” for everything you have done for me. I am so pleased with the result and so happy that I can begin to feel normal again. Your care and consideration are truly appreciated”

 

Ms B

I’ve always wanted a breast-reduction. Dr Ramakrishnan made the whole process as easy, and worry-free as possible. I was 100% confident that he understood exactly what I wanted to achieve, and had complete faith in him. He has achieved amazing results for me, and I couldn’t be happier or more confient. Dr Ramakrishnan, his nurses and staff are simply wonderful and I’m forever grateful. If I had known it was this easy, I would have had the operation years ago! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him !

24th January 2019

I was very pleased with the results and the care I was given throughout. I only reduced the wait time, as a couple of after care appointments ran late, by up to one hour.

I had breast implants a number of years ago and it was time to have these removed, especially when I discovered they were not the best implants. During the whole pre-op process Dr Ramakrishnan and his approach gave me confidence at an important time in my life. His explanation about what would happen during the process and afterwards really helped me prepare. The operation went very smoothly and I felt very comfortable. After the operation Dr Ramakrishnan was very clear about the procedures I should follow and whilst he was strict that I follow his instructions I really believe that in doing so it was very beneficial to me and the healing process. The post-op care I have received has been 2nd to none and at all times I have felt that if I ever needed help it was there. The result 7 months on has exceeded all my expectations and has come out so well. The scar tissue repair and overall look is incredible. I feel so pleased with the outcome and am very happy that I went through the procedure. Thank you so much Dr Ramakrishnan for everything.

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan,

I would like you to know how tremendously grateful I am for all that you did for me last year with my breast reconstruction. I will never forget your professionalism and dedication”

 

Mrs K

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan,

We remain eternally grateful for the thoughtful and speedy way in sorting out the problems. Thank you for making the arrangements and taking on such a difficult and distressing problem. We are grateful to you, the nursing staff and your secretary. God bless you all”

 

Mr and Mrs F

In November 2011, I underwent a subcutaneous mastectomy to remove a breast tumor.  Unfortunately the implant was exposed after several weeks and it was removed.  I had to wear a prosthesis for over a year and this was effecting my self-esteem and confidence. Thanks to my cousin Dr. Charlot Grech , who is a consultant dermatologist in Kent, I was referred through him  to Mr Ramakrishnan for a delayed DIEP flap , since in my country , Malta, this type of surgery is not done.

I was very glad when I met Mr Ramakrishnan and he confirmed that I could have the DIEP flap. It’s been a year since now, and no words can express my gratitude towards Mr Ramakrishnan for the good job, care and dedication he delivered to me as a patient. The nurses and medics were very nice, excellent in their profession and caring. I spent 4 days at HDU in Nuffield and was given all the attention a patient requires after a major procedure. I had to stay 4 weeks in the UK to recover but I have no regrets whatsoever.

Thank you again Mr Ramakrishnan for giving me back my woman hood and help me regain my self-esteem. I would like to take this opportunity to encourage other women who are considering undergoing a DIEP flap, to be confident if they choose Mr Ramakrishnan. They would be in the good hands of an excellent surgeon who not only treats the patient but also the problem. Thank you again Mr Ramakrishnan

 

Ms B

After research I found Mr Ramakrishnan 15 years ago for breast augmentation. I had a number of consultations with him before the surgery and he made me feel at ease and answered all my questions. He is a very skilled surgeon and has a very kind, gentle manner. Last year, for medical reasons, I had to have my implants replaced and was so relieved to find that Mr Ramakrishnan was still consulting as I would be very apprehensive to have another consultant do the surgery. He is very experienced in this field and ,although, a more complicated procedure, the operation went very well and am very pleased with the outcome. He is an amazing surgeon and would highly recommend him.

2nd June 2019

4 years ago I received the unfortunate news that I was BRCA 2 positive. After my initial shock my long journey of research into preventative mastectomies and reconstruction began. This journey took me down several long roads. However, it was only on speaking to Mr Ramakrishnan that I knew I was finally on the right road. As a Mum to four small children travelling abroad to have my surgery was a huge decision. Once I met Mr Ramakrishnan I knew it was the only decision for myself and my family. The pre-care and attention I was given was fantastic. Mr Ramakrishnan himself and all of his staff were at the end of the telephone 24/7 and in fact rang me regularly in the weeks leading up to the surgery simply to chat and to talk me through every part of my journey.

At all times, the office and surgical staff were very supportive, friendly, kind and caring.  All my questions were answered, and the prior and post-surgical follow-up calls were fantastic.  I felt confident I was in good hands with everyone involved in the entire process.

My experience and surgical results can be summed up in one word, phenomenal! Mr Ramakrishnan, with your superb surgical skills and artisan’s eye, I feel transformed beyond what I ever imagined possible.  My results far exceed any of my expectations – Thank You from the bottom of my heart.

 

Ms K

Mr Ramakrishnan & team were amazing for my recent procedure. Efficiency and excellence must by Mr Ramakrishnan’s middle name!. All appointments were on time & efficient. My time in hospital was also managed with great efficiency &expertise and I’m very satisfied with results.

Mr Ramakrishnan carried out a DIEP reconstruction on me following a mastectomy and created a new nipple some months later. Mr Ramkrishnan explained everything and gave great care, visiting every day when I was in hospital. I am extremely pleased with the results.

Mr Ramakrishnan is a truly outstanding professional! I had a rhinoplasty under his care and the advice, procedure, and results were all perfect. His aura oozes expertise, warmth and just all round brilliance really. From getting to know him a little bit on a personal level I saw nothing but kindness, understanding, great wit and compassion. I think I love him a bit too much.

30th October 2018

I met with Mr Ramakrishnan via Zoom, firstly due to Covid, and then in person. He explained everything about the surgery, in detail, including any risks associated with the procedures. I was given a date promptly and went in for two procedures. The surgery went very well and six month’s on I have had no issues and been discharged. I am very pleased with the end result of the breast reduction as this has helped greatly with my posture. I was recommended Mr Ramakrishnan by a colleague and have since recommended to another colleague.

22nd October 2021

I am now 8 weeks post surgery and I am absolutely over the moon with the results. Professor Ramakrishnan and his team are simply the best. I had a radical mastectomy nearly 8 years ago and decided it was time for me to have reconstruction. Following a thorough appointment with the Professor, he encouraged me to have a DIEP Flap reconstruction. I cannot express my happiness with the results. This has changed my life and given me my confidence back. This man is very clever and an expert in this field. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Professor Ramakrishnan.

 

19th April 2018

Dear Prof. Venkat,

Ever since we met you in India, we were convinced that you are the surgeon to solve our problem. Solve you did, with such ease achieving a fantastic outcome. We are awed by your brilliance, expertise, skill and thoroughness. Thank you very much for your kindness, professionalism, understanding and approach to the sensitivity of the patient. It was truly phenomenal! We would also like to thank the wonderful team that you have, who were always helpful, supportive and smiling. Professor Venkat, you are truly an inspiration. We hope and pray that you would continue to serve the society for a long, long time.

19th August 2018

I had a bust reduction with Dr Ramakrishnan on the 25th February. He discussed the procedure thoroughly two weeks before and he made me feel very at ease. On the day of the operation he again spoke to me about the procedure and after the operation came to see me too. The aftercare was excellent. I am extremely delighted with the results and would highly recommend dr Ramakrishnan to anyone he is very professional

8th September 2023

I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2018 and was advised that a mastectomy and breast reconstruction would be the ideal treatment. I was soon introduced to Professor Venkat Ramakrishnan at the Nuffield Brentwood Hospital. I was scared, nervous and unsure as to what the future had in store for me.

At my first consultation, Professor Ramakrishnan was most caring and understanding. He had excellent listening skills and sensitively explained that the best route for me was to have a DIEP flap reconstruction. Before making any final decision I was strongly encouraged to attend the Professors Bra Group Meetings of patients who were in various stages of recovery from a similar operation. I was hesitant to attend at first, but the benefit of listening and hearing the accounts of other ladies in a similar situatwas very beneficial.

I was given the best possible treatment during my surgery and was constantly reassured by Professor Ramakrishnan. He explained everything in clear and simple terms and I quickly had faith and confidence in his approach. A couple of days after the surgery, whilst still in the hospital there was a complication. The Professor was contacted at his home and he immediately returned to the hospital to assist me and give me and my family further reassurance. Nothing is too much trouble for this man.

Having a mastectomy and a DIEP flap reconstruction is not a quick fix. It is a journey. But now two years on I have been discharged from his clinic and I can honestly say that I am delighted with the first-class treatment I received.

Professor Venkat Ramakrishnan is well and worthily recommended.

19th February 2020

“Words do not seem enough to express the gratitude I feel towards Mr Ramakrishnan.  After my breast cancer diagnosis and being told a mastectomy was really the only option for me, I was devastated, I didn’t think anything could possibly replace my natural breasts but the reconstruction which Venkat has given me is wonderful.  Venkat is a highly skilled man but this is made even better by his kind and gentle manner, his understanding of your fears, your needs, his commitment to your care (no matter what time of day or night) and the ability to create what I feel has given me the confidence to carry on and live my life like a woman with two normal breasts.  Thank You. two simple words, but they have so much meaning where Venkat and his team are concerned.”

 

 

Mrs H

I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart after having gone through multiple “failures”; what I have reached so far is amazing and I am looking forward to continuing the procedure till the end.  As an international patient your professionalism, kindness and understanding of the need of patient follow-up before and after the operation, via international phone calls and emails, was highly appreciated…..once again THANK YOU!

From the moment I first met Mr Ramakrishnan, I knew that I had chosen the right person to carry out a bilateral breast reduction for me. He was so thorough with the explanation of the whole procedure, and at the same time very understanding of my wish to have this procedure carried out. I am so pleased with the results and wish that I had had this breast reduction done before. He has a very kind and professional attitude and I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending him. His support team and staff were also wonderful. Thank you so much.

26th April 2019

Back in February I had a breast reduction and life, it was the best decision I made. Mr Ramakrishnan made me feel at ease the minute I walked through the door, I had 3 consultations before I decided to book the surgery which was great for me as I was worried about the surgery and had lots of questions.

I`m very happy with the results of my surgery, I can run and go to gym classes without feeling embarassed that my boobs are too large. The confidence this surgery has given me is life changing, I`m only 26 and so pleased that I made this choice and Mr Ramakrishnan was my surgeon. A very kind, considerate man who truly has enhanced my life and I`m very grateful for that.

The whole experience from the first consultation to been discharged has been seemless, which is a credit to Mr Ramakrishnan, all staff at the Nuffield as well as his secreterial team who are very efficient and so kind. Kindness goes a long way when you are going through surgery, so thank you to you all.

10th November 2020

I couldn’t have asked for anymore from my surgeon…. he made me feel relaxed, comfortable and confident with the procedure, from my first consultation! Very lovely man who is outstanding with his work! Would recommend him to everyone!

I am very pleased with my results and I would go through the process all over again if I had to. I would highly recommend Dr Ramakrishnan if you’re considering a procedure under his care.

11th July 2022

What can I say!!! He is absolutely amazing. He is extremely professional and considerate and has an extremely kind nature. I had many consultations with other surgeons and even put my surgery off and then heard about Mr Ramakrishnan and as soon as I walked through the door I knew He was the one for me! Its not just about the surgery it’s also the after care too and him and his nurses where all AMAZING any concerns I had there was no hesitation to see me in person within 24hrs to put my mind at rest. I can’t recommend him more and would definitely use him again if I needed too.

Thank you for giving me my confidence back

25th January 2022

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan,

It is difficult to put into words the gratitude I feel for all your kindness and care shown to me in the past year. I know that I have been a difficult patient, but your skill and expertise has achieved a realistic result, as you always promised! It has certainly not been an easy year but I always had confidence that you would put it right.”

 

Mrs J

My first time ever having a private procedure, Mr Ramakrishnan made me feel at ease, talked about all aspects of the procedure , made sure I understood what to expect before, during and after operation. Very approachable, felt I could ask questions. No pressure was made on any decisions I made. Aftercare after procedure was excellent. Would recommend to anyone

 

Breast Augmentation November 2016

I felt I was in professional and safe hands with Professor Ramakrishnan. He was understanding and helpful, I only ever wanted to look natural and he helped with this. He is realistic with the out come, which may dishearten some but I came already having done years of research. I will be returning to him for any further reasons and will be recommending him.

5th April 2018

My experience was 1st Class, I felt cared for and totally informed all the way. Dr Ramankrishnan was excellent on every stage, Nuffield Hospital staff where so kind I could not fault one part of the procedure and the result far outweighed my expectations. Thank you to you all. I can’t recommend enough.

6th January 2020

I am very happy with the out come from my surgery and really happy with the follow up calls. Mr Ramakrishnan was professional at all times. I would have no hesitation in recommending him. Thank you I love my new eyes.

5th April 2021

I decided to have inverted nipple surgery due to the effect it was making to my personal life, confidence and relationships. I seeked advice from my GP where they recommended Nuffield Hospital in Brentwood where Dr Ramakrishnan would be my surgeon. I enquirered about having a consultation, where I received a great service throughout. I went for a first consultation where Dr Ramakrishnan described and showed a description of the whole procedure and described the risks and the benefits. After this he told me to go away and think carefully about if I wanted to go ahead before arranging a date for the surgery. I knew 100% I wanted to go ahead and so I returned and booked a date for surgery. Dr Ramakrishnan remained honest, sincere and trustworthy throughout and I whole heartedly trusted him to carry out a good procedure for me. My surgery was on the 22nd October 2015 where I was accompanied by two lovely nurses – Leigh and Deborah (who are an absolute credit to the Nuffield Hospital) as well as Dr Ramakrishnan. The level of care received before and after my surgery was brilliant, and I can safely say I am more than delighted that I went ahead with the surgery, especially at this hospital with this surgeon. It has now been six months since surgery and it has dramatically changed my life and confidence, and I cannot express my thanks and gratitude enough to Dr Ramakrishnan for carrying out this procedure and remaining professional and caring throughout.

11th March 2016

From start to finish I could not have felt safer. It is such a luxury to be able to trust your doctor implicitly and Mr Ramakrishnan provided a beautiful silver lining to a traumatic and scary journey

Mr Ramakrishnan is a true professional and was very honest and realistic about the possible outcome of my operation. I need not have worried at all, he is a perfectionist and l am so happy with the result. I would definitely recommend Mr Ramakrishnan and the Brentwood Nuffield for a fantastic service. Thank you

I went to see the Professor to talk about having a Breast Reduction. The Professor listened to all my needs and concerns, he did not pressure me in any way to make a decision. He was very clear about what to expect before, during and after my procedure. He was very approachable for asking any questions or concerns. My after are following the procedure was excellent. I would recommend anyone to go and speak to the Professor if you are thinking of having a procedure done. All the staff at the hospital were very helpful and friendly. Also the Professor’s Secretary was very helpful and got back to me immediately when I rang the office with an enquiry.

25th October 2016

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan,

Thank you so much for the clinical expertise and caring nature. I am so pleased with the results. I am making a strong recovery and cannot thank you enough”

 

Ms K

Mr Ramakrishnan is one of the best doctors I have ever used. I first used Mr R in 2019 for a medial thigh lift as he came highly recommended and then in 2023 for b augmentation. He is both experienced and professional, listening to the patient’s needs to ensure the best outcome.

 

I felt happy with the consultation

U.P.

I have been under the care of Professor Ramakrishnan for over 15 years and in my opinion is one of the best in his field. Over this time I have undergone 3 breast procedures, all of which have been meticulously explained to me and have gone perfectly. Each time I have been overwhelmed by his skill, level of care and professionalism. The level of expertise and credibility Professor exudes automatically puts you at ease, and I am always happy to led by his choices and follow his guidance. For anyone looking for a plastic surgeon for a procedure listed as his speciality – do not hesitate to book a consultation. I could not comprehend enlisting the services of another professional within this field. Highly Recommended, as always thank you for everything Professor!

I would have no hesitation in recommending Prof Ramakrishnan, very thorough consultations prior to surgery which he advised to take due time considering surgery as it was cosmetic and not medically necessary. I was extremely pleased with the outcome of surgery and the aftercare provided was extremely good. I have since recommended a friend and my mother.

10th April 2018

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan,

I truly felt the need to put pen to paper in order to say a huge thank you for your skill and time in performing my recent DIEP. Words cannot express, even after this short time how different I feel, how amazing it is to have a cleavage again and how liberating it is to be rid of my ‘stick-on’, a constant reminder of my disfigurement. I will take pleasure in placing it under the rear wheel of my car in due course! The team you have at the hospital are superb – totally committed, caring and I thank them all for their support and understanding”

 

Mrs C

I had an extremely positive experience and absolutely love the end results! Dr Ramakrishnan is really friendly, kind and pays close attention to detail. I felt very confident and relaxed knowing that he would be performing my surgery and looking after me!

Excellent care and support. The surgery was a complete success and I am delighted with the outcome which will be life changing for me. I can’t thank Mr Ramakrishnan enough for his time and skill. I would wholeheartedly recommend this surgeon to anyone.

19th June 2019

Professor Ramakrishnan has done the best I could have asked for. I could fully trust his knowledge and experience and the results I have prove this. I’m 8 weeks post surgery and I am very happy with the results through recovery so far. I thank him and the people working around him for their professionalism, great care and consideration. I had many questions and multiple consultations all handled very thoroughly and the professor could not have been more helpful. I went into surgery relaxed and at ease because of this. I’m very glad I did my research and I definitely recommend him highly.

8th May 2018

Thank you to Professor Ramakrishnan and his team, My results have exceeded my expectations I never thought it would have been possible. I have so much confidence now, having this surgery is the best thing I’ve ever done and it has changed my life for the better. I wish I had it done years ago. It was quite a journey but well worth all of it. I was looked after so well nothing was too much trouble, if I was worried he would put my mind at rest and see me if needed.

I am truly grateful. 🙂 Thank you again.

17th January 2022

Mr Ramakrishnan has looked after me for a number of years he has truly changed my life for the positive with his expertise and love of detail. He is kind, professional and very non-judgemental.

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan,

Just wanted to send an e-mail to say how pleased we were to see you in the local newspaper. Your work is incredible and makes so many women’s lives happier. I am a living example.”

 

Mrs K

I cannot praise Mr. Ramakrishnan highly enough. I found him to have a ‘no nonsense’ approach but a sympathetic ear and caring attitude throughout. I underwent a mastectomy and reconstruction of one breast using the DIEP flap method together with reduction of the other breast for symmetry. This was carried out at the Brentwood Nuffield Hospital where the nursing care was second to none. Mr. Ramakrishnan’s skill as plastic surgeon together with that of breast surgeon, Miss Sascha Dua and supporting medical team, was splendid. I suffered no pain and very little discomfort following surgery and was able to leave hospital after 5 days. From an aesthetic viewpoint, six weeks on from my operation, the results have been excellent. I am highly delighted and very grateful to Mr. Ramakrishnan and all concerned.

13th August 2019

“Hi

I was discharged from Mr Ramakrishnan’s care yesterday evening. Firstly I would like to thank him for the excellent job he has done! I get changed in the gym now without covering myself up and no one gives me a second glance. I would also like to thank the most efficient, professional and patient(with payment from my insurers!) secretaries any consultant could have. It has been a pleasure under not such pleasurable circumstances. If there anything I can do in the future please get in touch.”

 

Mrs J

Excellent surgeon

21st March 2017

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan

I wish to thank you and all the nursing staff at Wellesley Hospital, while in there for breast reduction. I know you have heard this many many times, but a big thank you for my new boob. I was very nervous but worth it. I wished that I had the courage to have had it done years ago, but better late than never. Once again thank you so much.”

 

Mrs S

I am so happy with my procedure! Professor Ramakrishnan was amazing! I was nervous and worried about going too big as I’m small framed and i went to see professor a number of times and he was very understanding throughout the whole process! He certainly is very talented and i felt totally at ease and i felt i was in great hands! My advice, go for it and have it done with Professor Ramakrishnan! I went from a 32 A to a 32 DD and i had 275cc under the muscle tear drop implants!

27th March 2017

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan,

I would like to extend my thanks for all the care you gave us during the course of my husband’s treatment, we both had the utmost trust in your warmth and professionalism”

 

Mrs W

fantastic surgeon, took time to explain every part of the procedure, and gave me total confidence throughout the process. The results of my abdominoplasty are amazing, better than I hoped for. After 3 children and losing 4stone in weight, I never thought I could have the flat stomach I have got now. Just amazing every aspect of my care Thankyou.

 

26th February 2018

I saw Dr Ramakrishnan for a labiaplasty in 2016, the care I received from everyone involved was impeccable. The surgery has completely changed my life for the better.

22nd March 2020

I cannot stress enough just how professional Dr Ramakrishnan and his entire team are. His pre and post care is exceptional. The empathy he shows and professionalism is second to none. For such a life-changing procedure the fact I had no concerns and felt so safe and well looked after is a testament to his work ethic. Nuffield Brentwood is a superb hospital. The staff who work there from consultants, nurses, cleaners and canteen staff are all so professional and caring.

 

31st March 2023

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan,

I would like to thank you so much for doing my operation. You have changed me so much not only in appearance but you have given me the confidence I always lacked, I no longer stand at the back of a crowd, I stand in the front.”

I had my surgery with Mr Ramakrishnan in May. I am absolutely thrilled with the results and they have changed my life. Mr Ramakrishnan was incredibly informative during our apportionments and he put me at ease for surgery. Compassionate and professional.

Firstly thank you to Mr Ramakrishnan, throughout the journey I felt at ease. What a professional and master of knowledge. My breast augmentation surgery was fairly complexed. My results have exceeded my expectations. Getting the surgery is the best thing I’ve ever done and has changed my life. I cannot recommend Mr Ramakrishnan and his team enough. Thank you again, I am truly grateful.

24th October 2021

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan,

Having witnessed what amazingly long hours you work you will probably never get around to reading this. However I do want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for my wonderful operation-no words can describe what it feels like to be ‘whole’ again after the ravages of cancer. Your incredible skills, kindness and care and encouraging visits to see you have given me the chance to begin a new life and for this I shall always be grateful.”

 

Mrs W

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan,

I just wanted to thank you for everything you did for me during my breast reconstruction. The dedication and commitment shown to me was outstanding. I really felt that the team did everything possible to ensure the best result…even if that meant coming in on a day off!”

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan,

I cannot thank you enough for your time and patience, especially when explaining the situation to me. I truly believe that you have been responsible for my ‘healthy’ state of mind and will be eternally grateful”

 

Mrs M

Mr Ramakrishnan is a brilliant surgeon. I had several consultations with him prior to my operation. He spent much time with me, answered all of my questions and made me aware of the various risks. His honesty, approachability, and detailed consultations ensured that I was prepared for the surgery and its outcome. I am so happy that I chose Mr Ramakrishnan as my surgeon and I am over the moon with the result. I returned home the day of the surgery, suffered minimal pain and my scar is very small. I would thoroughly recommend Mr Ramakrishnan to anyone considering breast augmentation surgery.

28th December 2020

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan,

I am so grateful to you that all I can say is ‘Thank you’, totally inadequate for how I feel. Thanks to you and your team. I have my self esteem and confidence back. When I first came to you I was very depressed with a very negative outlook. Once I met you I had no doubt that if anyone could improve the situation it was you and you didn’t fail me…..I am grateful beyond words for your skill, not only have you me a new breast you’ve improved the ‘old’ one on the right, what a morale booster”

 

 

Mrs S

Mr Ramakrishnan and his team were very nice and helpful. They were knowledgable and answered any queries I had regarding the procedure. Pre and post Op, they made me feel comfortable and looked after. I am pleased with the results of my procedure an excellent experience overall

19th March 2022

From the initial consultation, to the end, Dr R looked after to me faultlessly. My surgery day was calm and smooth and my pain managed perfectly. I am very happy with my results and always recommend Dr Ramakrishnan to my friends and clients.

I am so happy with the results I achieved. Mr Ramakrishnan put me at ease straight away, provided excellent advise & allowed me to achieve the exact natural results I wanted with really minimal scarring. Couldn’t have asked for more, really exceeded all my expectations.

5th May 2018

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan,

Just a line to thank you for your wonderful work as regards my breast reconstruction. Not only for saving my life but for giving me the confidence to go on with the rest of my life once again. A big thank you for your kindness from myself and my husband”

 

 

Mrs F

Mr Ramakrishnan is very professional but approachable. He is very reassuring, patient and has a calming manner. His staff are all caring and efficient.

10/12/2019

I was a bundle of nerves on my first appointment, but within minutes of meeting Mr Ramakrishnan I felt calm. During this – and our subsequent visits – both myself and my husband felt that his manor was efficient but kindly, informative but – as was my wish – without the gory details. He involved my husband at every opportunity and made sure that he understood what was happening as well as myself, and didn’t make him feel like he was being a nuisance.

My surgery was on the cusp of the first outbreak of Covid-19 in 2020, but our follow-up appointments were still adhered to – even if it meant via video calls. The post-operative care and the fact that he made regular calls over the weekends to check my condition were in our view above and beyond. When it was required he put himself at risk so that some problems that needed his personal attention could be carried out face to face.

I cannot praise Mr Ramakrishnan – and his team – enough. For someone aged 55 who had never been into a hospital for treatment it was a big deal. But with a mixture of pre-surgery consultations & post-surgery after-care I had nothing to worry about.

I would absolutely recommend Mr Ramakrishnan to anyone needing the surgery I had. I thank him – and his team – for everything they did for me.

10th April 2021

Following a diagnosis of breast cancer a mastectomy was recommended and I opted for immediate reconstruction. My research told me Professor Ramakrishnan was the top of this field for reconstruction and at this worrying time I felt I needed the reassurance of someone I could trust. I was not wrong. I could tell from all the nursing staff that supported him that he was held in very high regard. All his nursing support team and admin staff have been so friendly, professional and reassuring at all times. Meticulous and a perfectionist he carried out the lengthy surgery and aftercare with skill and care. He is dedicated to his work and I understand even offers his expertise to train others abroad. The end result for me included having mastectomy, breast reconstruction, nipple reconstruction and nipple tattooing. My life has been changed from a traumatic time to feeling normal again. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

2nd March 2018

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan,

I cannot thank you enough for all that you have done for me. I am overwhelmed by your kindness and generosity. I truly appreciate your willingness to see me at any time with short notice and frequent contact to alleviate my anxiety and concern.”

 

Mrs G

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan,

My wife and I would like to thank you and your team for the care and attention that you gave our son following his recent ankle fracture. We are grateful not only for the expertise but for the manner in which every proposed procedure was explained to him”

Breast implants removed and replaced. Very satisfied with outcome of breast surgery and recovery time. Mr Ramakrishnan and team are excellent.

At first I found Mr Ramakrishnan care a little too cautious in hindsight I can see he was extremely professional from the very start. My care was fantastic, before, during and after surgery. I am over the moon with results and had support from Mr Ramakrishnan for many months.  With underlying medical conditions I do not feel any short cuts or risks were taken, in fact quite the opposite. I received the utmost care at all times and certainly recommend the services of Mr Ramakrishnan and his team.

21st August 2019

I cannot express my happiness with the surgery Mr Ramakrishnan performed… I had bi lateral breast reduction 2 weeks ago and I cannot recommend him enough, I am so happy with the end result

24th March 2022

I have always been unhappy with my tuberous breasts. I finally decided to have an operation and so glad i found The Professor Ramakrishnan at Nuffield. During consultation, professor was kind and attentive whilst also being honest in regards to my condition. The day of surgery went smoothly and i had no pain. Few days later slight discomfort only. Follow up consultations also very caring from the professor and his team. As for my results, i am overjoyed. My new breasts look very natural and suit my frame. I had my operation in April 2017, 8 months on everyday they kook even more natural. I would definately recommend The Professor.

 

1st December 2017

Great doctor, talked me through the entire procedure and carried it out flawlessly. Felt next to no discomfort during and following the procedure. Healing went better than hoped due to location of the procedure. Couldn’t recommend a better doctor.

This was my first time having any kind of surgery but Mr Ramakrishnan was excellent throughout. I felt comfortable from the initial consultation to the follow up appointments as he thoroughly guided me through every aspect of what to expect whilst giving his honest advice.  The whole team and nurses were very friendly and the hospital took very good care which made me feel comfortable on the day. It’s safe to say I felt at ease with the professionalism from Mr Ramakrishnan and believe I got the best care possible and I’m very happy with the results!

Thanks again to the whole team, so pleased I had the surgery with Mr Ramakrishnan.

 

Breast Augmentation March 2016

I had visited a couple of surgeons before I ‘d met Prof ramakrishnan and as soon as I met him I knew he was the one to perform my breast reconstruction . He was totally honest from the beginning on what to expect . I trusted him implicitly and am so happy with how I look . I feel normal again and he has given me my life back. Thank you so much Professor Ramakrishnan

Just a note to thank you for the level of attention we have received under your detailed care. We have been very impressed by it as well as delighted at the outcome of what you have done. We are very grateful to be recipients of this ground breaking procedure. Please keep going for the benefit of many others.”

 

Mrs H

Dear Mr Ramakrishnan,

I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart after having gone through multiple “failures”; what I have reached so far is amazing and I am looking forward to continuing the procedure till the end.  As an international patient your professionalism, kindness and understanding of the need of patient follow-up before and after the operation, via international phone calls and emails, was highly appreciated.  I would also like to add that leaving home and staying far from home for nearly three weeks was made much easier by the fact that there was just a wonderful team that you work with in Nuffield Hospital – they were absolutely fantastic to both myself and my husband…once again THANK YOU!

Ms B

I could not recommend Dr Ramakrishnan enough he was absolutely amazing from the first consultation all the way through! I had a breast reduction he made me feel so at ease and he explained everything so well. I feel proud to say he was my surgeon! I look forward to seeing Dr R in the future for the post op appointments. Over the moon with my results Thankyou Dr.

23/08/2024

Some years ago I had breast cancer & therefore had a mastectomy with an implant performed at the same time. Over the years this had become hard, misshapen & I looked loopsided in a bra & when dressed. I was referred to Professor Ramakrishnan who immediately put me at my ease, & reassured me that he could help me. The old inplant was removed & new one inserted “to fill the void”. Total success, my appearance is normal again. During the whole procedure I was treated with great kindness & reassured at every stage in my treatment. Would have no hesitation in recommending Professor Ramakrishnan to any one.

31st October 2016

Really pleased with the way my operation has turned out. Mr Ramakrishnan is a very professional man. I was frightened of having the op but he put me at ease and i would certainly recommend him.

17th August 2021

Mr Ramakrishnan is one , if not the best surgeons I have ever met. He is calm, attentive, and explains everything in great detail to the patient to ensure they have the fullest understanding of any procedure before going into surgery. He and the team he assembles to look after you, before, during and after the surgery, are all excellent in providing the appropriate care. Simply put, Mr Ramakrishnan is highly recommended. I am so pleased with my surgery and the scarring is almost invisible.

25th March 2022

I couldn’t be happier with the outcome of my procedure and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Mr Ramakrishnan and his team. The care and professionalism from start to finish was outstanding and I felt in safe hands the entire time. The results are beyond what I ever imagined.

Wonderful man, awesome surgeon, kind and caring and listens to you. His staff are also very helpful and understanding. Cannot recommend him enough. Thank you for everything that you have done.

22nd July 2019

Fantastic from start to finish. The staff and Mr Ramakrishnan were very clear on everything. They make you feel very comfortable throughout. Extremely happy with the results and would highly recommend him to anyone thinking of using him for any treatment.

20th April 2020

In 2011, I saw Mr Ramakrishnan at Spire Hartswood Hospital Brentwood because I had a sebaceous cyst on my chest from birth which continued to grow and grow but the NHS refused to remove it. I’m so glad that I saw him instead because he was wonderful! As other patients of his have said, he is kind, caring and straight-forward. he was also genuinely indignant about my situation and therefore went out of his way to ensure that I got the best care! Because of this, I am now rid of something that was beginning to cause me great distress and have only been left with a faint scar! Neither of us were expecting this but I think that it was due to his high level of care! Everyone with chest issues should go and see Mr Ramakrishnan as he is excellent!

16th May 2017

I am delighted with outcome of my operation. I found Mr Ramakrishnan and his staff to be extremely good in all respects from the admin staff and nurses through to the actual surgery and the aftercare. I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Mr Ramakrishnan to other people.

27th March 2021

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan,
I am so pleased with the results of my operation and cannot thank you enough for what you have done for me. I feel really lucky that my GP referred me to you and I hope you will continue to transform other people’s lives as you have done mine for many years to come. Thank you again”

From start to finish I could not have felt safer. It is such a luxury to be able to trust your doctor implicitly and Mr Ramakrishnan provided a beautiful silver lining to a traumatic and scary journey

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan,

Just a thank you for all your kindness and attention whilst I was under your care. Also to your secretaries who answered my questions on the phone and were very polite and caring. The nurses who held my hand during the procedure. I held it so tight I am sure I must have hurt her. Last of all a big thank you to you and all your staff. Best wishes”

 

Mrs M

Following an extremely bad leak from 30-year-old implants, there were concerns that the skin beneath the breast would be too thin to heal and could result in skin necrosis. Despite this Professor Ramakrishnan did a fantastic job in removing and replacing the old implants. The procedure went smoothly and has healed beautifully. I am so happy with the result and feel very lucky that I chose this surgeon. He is kind, understanding, incredibly professional and explains everything from start to finish. I cannot fault the care I received and would have no hesitation in recommending him.

12th April 2018

Dr Ramakrishnan is the best surgeon. So professional and kind, he knows exactly what he’s doing and puts you at ease. I had 100% faith in him. Dr Ramakrishnan and his team are amazing and I would highly recommend going to him.

I am so happy with the results of my surgery with Mr Ramakrishnan, he made me feel at ease with all appointments, gave expert advice, and gave me peace of mind with my surgery. The aftercare was incredible and I felt well looked after. The best decision I have ever made.

I first met Professor 6 years ago and was immediately put at ease. He is very thorough in his explanation of the whole process, trustworthy and honest,. I went into surgery feeling I was totally in the best hands possible. My results concreted my feelings I could not have been happier. His after care is second to none and with my first operation I had some complications and he saw me every day until he was happy all was ok. I have recently returned to the Professor for a further procedure and would urge anyone looking for someone that is totally trustworthy, knowledgeable and so thorough and kind then Professor Ramakrishnan is that person. Once again Professor and the excellent team he has around him, have totally exceeded my expectations.

“Thank you” seems such a small thing to say for all of your special skills, and care and attention that you have given me. My life can now come off hold and hopefully I can be the person I was and this will be thanks to you. Thank you!”

I am very pleased with my surgery results. Mr Ramakrishnan made me feel very reassured and fully explained the procedure from before the surgery to the aftercare. His team at the Nuffield Hospital in Brentwood are amazing and very considerate. Overall the experience was excellent.

From the first consultation, actual surgery and post-operative check-ups Mr Ramakrishnan was kind, professional and caring. I was delighted with the results of my surgery and couldn’t have been happier with the whole process. In addition I had no concerns about ongoing costs at it was a one-off payment which covered consultation, actual surgery and post-operative care. I would readily recommend him.

Mr Venkat Ramakrishnan is an outstanding surgeon. I had 2 consultations with him before having the surgery done in February 2020. From the moment I walked through the door for the initial consultation I just felt at ease. The way he spoke and gave such detail explaining anything I was unsure of and listened to everything I had to say, I built my trust in him from the first day and knew he was the surgeon for me! His secretary Jo was also so helpful very efficient and professional.

On the day of the surgery I walked into the hospital of course feeling a little nervous, but the staff were amazing and as soon as I saw Ramakrishnan I just knew I was in the best hands. The surgery went so well, I was home the same evening. I had my first follow up and we were both pleased with the way things were healing. I then also had a follow up that was due during the pandemic which we had over the phone and even then the phone call was in great detail and never rushed.

I recently had my last follow up and i honestly can’t tell you how perfect the results are, exactly everything I wanted and we discussed Mr Ramakrishnan delivered. The scars are very neat and small. It has changed my life and body confidence so much.

What I love the most is that Ramakrishnan isn’t like the other surgeons who promote over social media platforms, treating you like a conveyor belt. He is honest and his results speak volumes for him with no advertising platform needed. His work and care is absolutely phenomenal.

Thank you again for changing my life and building my confidence.

Great care from start to finish, cannot find any fault. I was fully informed of all information regarding my surgery and nothing felt to much to ask. Mr Ramakrishnan and his whole team were amazing from start to finish. After care was excellent and I’m amazed by my results.

Thank you.

I saw mr Ramakrishnan at Nuffield Brentwood in Oct 2018, for abdominoplasty with muscle repair. I found mr Ramakrishnan and the staff at Nuffield very professional and they always took the time to answer any questions or concerns that I had. I saw mr Ramakrishnan a few times before my surgery to give me the opportunity to ask any questions that I had. He was very reassuring to my worries.

The aftercare I received was excellent both from the staff and mr Ramakrishnan, He did not discharge me from the hospital until he was completely satisfied that I was well enough to leave, I then had regular follow up appointments and could contact them at any time if I had a problems. I would definitely recommend mr Ramakrishnan to anyone who is looking at having this type of surgery.

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan,

I cannot thank you enough for all that you have done for me. I am overwhelmed by your kindness and generosity. I truly appreciate your willingness to see me at any time with short notice and frequent contact to alleviate my anxiety and concern.”

“Dear Mr Ramakrishnan,

I could thank you forever and still never repay what you have given me. It has given me a lot of self esteem. After being diagnosed with breast cancer I thought I would never get over that but you have put lots of self confidence back with your positive outlook that when you had finished it would look good….but it looks wonderful. You are a surgeon in a million. Thanks with all my heart”

I had a tummy tuck on 14th October 2019

Where do I start everything from start to finish with mr Venkat ramakrishnan was everything I expected and more he was very kind and explained everything. Made me feel very comfortable and any worries I had he would answer and make me feel at ease. He has literally changed my life. My results are amazing better than what I thought or even imagined.

He is the best surgeon and I had a time I was panicking and he rang me straight away. All my follow up appointments from after surgery have been brilliant. And whilst in the care of the Nuffield I couldn’t of asked for better. If you are looking for a surgeon who you can trust I would highly recommend mr Venkat Ramakrishnan!

You won’t find better and what a really nice man he is. I’m so happy with my experience
