I am Professor John Ramage, a consultant physician in gastroenterology and hepatology, honorary consultant physician at the Institute of Liver Studies, King’s College Hospital and lead clinician for King’s Health Partners NET Centre which includes King’s, Guys and St Thomas’s, Kent Oncology Centre and Hampshire Hospitals. I am deputy research director at Hampshire Hospitals Foundation Trust and lead clinician for the Hampshire Collaboration for Health Research and Education. I trained at Portsmouth, Brighton and King’s College hospitals.
I am an advisory board member, past treasurer and immediate past Chair of the U.K. and Ireland Neuroendocrine Tumour Society. I am a member of the EORTC Quality of Life Group, through which I pursue research into quality of life in cancers. My main research interest is in quality of life and symptoms scores in neuroendocrine tumours of the small bowel and liver. I have written more than 150 peer-reviewed publications, and was the corresponding author of the UK guidelines for NET. I am now on the executive board of ENETs and chief investigator for several UK and international studies. I recently coordinated Hampshire Hospitals Foundation Trust input into the RECOVERY study for COVID-19. I have also taken part in the recent webinars on COVID-19 and NET patients for ENETS and has co-authored the UKINETS statement on this topic.
In my spare time I play keyboard for the hospital band and cycle the lanes of Hampshire.
