Ramakrishna (Ram) is a highly experienced state registered physiotherapist, sonographer, and an independent prescriber.
Having achieved a bachelors degree in Physiotherapy from Karnatak University, India, in 2001 Rami went on to gain a post graduate diploma in neuro-musculoskeletal health care from Keele University in 2003.
After gaining significant clinical experience in musculoskeletal medicine, orthopaedics and the treatment of sports injuries, he went on to further specialise in injection therapy and achieved post-graduate certification in musculoskeletal diagnostic and interventional ultrasound techniques.
Rami uses ultrasound to diagnose and treat a wide range of joint, muscle, tendon, ligament and nerve-related problems; the scans enable him to administer highly-accurate ultrasound-guided injections and other advanced procedures to help relieve many painful conditions.
Ultrasound and ultrasound-guided injections can also be beneficial in the management of some musculoskeletal problems that persist in not responding to other treatments (for example, unguided injections etc).
Rami has an almost unique skill set which has seen him work extensively at university hospitals across the UK, including Kings College Hospital, London, York University Hospital and also the Freeman Hospital in Newcastle upon Tyne.
We are delighted to have Ramakrishna here as part of our JL PhysioFit team; his skills are complementary to our own and help us provide our patients with the widest possible spectrum of treatment, care and rehabilitation techniques.
