  I had been suffering with a swollen knee and knee pain for a number of weeks which had severely impacted on my mobility. I visited Joint Care Clinics at Newcastle and met Ram. I found him to be extremely professional, courteous and friendly. He carried out a ultrasound scan on my knee and provided me with a clear diagnosis of the problem. I decided to have a cortisone injection and a gel injection which Ram carried out with great care and proficiency. I am very pleased with the results. The swelling has gone and the pain has been relieved. I would highly recommend Ram and this clinic.

  A truly amazing experience with Mr Ram today. I visited his practice in Rugby to have a USG injection to help with pain and movement to my frozen shoulder. He explained everything in great detail before proceeding with the injection. He also hi lighted a secondary issue during the scan which I can now refer to my doctor. I travelled a 13 hour round trip from Devon and it was so worth it as I am already feeling the benefit from my procedure

  Managed to get an appointment with Ram Rachaputi at short notice Excellent service He took time to explain everything to do with my ankle and used a scanner to locate the specific area that needed treatment. He treated accordingly. Would certainly recommend Date of experience: 27 December 2022

  Although my knee pain wasn’t considered as far advanced so as to need a replacement op, something that pleases me as I’ve no wish to go under the knife again, the pain has been bad. I discovered Ostenil and had injections in my right knee to ease the condition. It helped but, due to problems in the NHS, I’ve been unable to secure a consistent supply of appointments to make it effective. I found Ramakrishna who gave it to me privately. From our first meeting I was impressed with his manner, his understanding and the care he took. Subsequent injections haven’t worked as well so I decided to try a treatment not available on the NHS. PRP: Platelet Rich Plasma . . . The patient’s blood is withdrawn and spun in a centrifuge to remove the platelets which is then drawn into a syringe and injected back into their body at the site of the pain. I had no other options left to try. I knew that Ram offered this service and booked an appointment on Sept. 19th, 2022. He recommended three appointments, each a couple of weeks apart. It took straight away and lasted about a week. The second injection was given on Oct 5th, 2022 and lasted a little longer. The third one on Oct 24th, 2022. Five + weeks, now. No pains, some minor discomfort but this is caused by other factors. All in all, a success. Ram is a professional in all the levels of professionalism. He listens carefully so he’s able to understand the problem. His clinic in Rugby is clean and welcoming. He is punctual and expects no less from his patients. After careful examination of my knee on my second visit, he decided to draw off fluid before injecting the plasma in. He is monitoring all the time on an ultra-sound machine so as to place the needle into the optimum spot. On the 5th Oct, my second visit, he administered a steroid injection into my wife’s right hip due to consistent, and worsening, pain. Instant relief and she is still pain free. All in all, I have a faith and trust in Ram and his treatments that I have in only one other. Our lives are governed by our health and well-being, and once the pain is taken away we realise just how much it debilitates and affect us. I cannot recommend Ram highly enough.

  I needed to know the extent of the problem for a painful shoulder injury. A convenient appointment time and place was quickly arranged. Ram performed an assessment examination and ultrasound scan and quickly identified the problem. it helped being able to see the exact problem on the scan and having an expert explanation.

  I am now pain free after several years of foot and ankle pain thanks to Ram. I had had steroid injections before by my consultant in the NHS but these had a limited effect as they were not guided into the right place . Ram uses ultrasound guided injections so he can get the steroid into exactly where it us needed in the joint. He is extremely knowledgeable and very kind.
