My experience with this doctor was VERY negative. The visit went downhill immediately because I used a medical term. I hadn't diagnosed myself online, I am in the medical field, so am familiar with this jargon. As well, it was the term used by my referring physician to be evaluated. It was obvious that he didn't like that and I was dismissed from there. A month later, meds from my primary doc and now looking for a new ENT because it's still a problem.

Excellent Bedside Manner, My Surgery went very well. I was highly surprised at my recovery time. my surgery was 2 days ago and I am feeling great and have very little bleeding after following Dr.'s recommendations on irrigation. I highly recommend Dr. Ramakrishnan for Sinus Surgery.

Dr. Ramakrishnan is a wonderfull person and a Great Doctor! Because of my complicated history and health conditions, he took the time to carefully listen, as well as hear, what I was saying. He did a great job on my nasal surgury and I am breathing better these days, because of his skills as a surgeon. He also works with a wonderful team of nurses and support members, that were very kind to me.
