She is also recognized as one of the few international MRCP examiners for India, reflecting her standing within the global medical community.

Dr. Sarada treats a substantial international patient population from the Gulf, Africa, and South Asia, bringing a patient-centered approach to complex hepatic and gastrointestinal conditions.
