Biography

Dr Kundu is a Gastroenterology fellow at HonorHealth with a broad clinical and academic background that bridges internal medicine, hospitalist medicine, and Gastroenterology. She earned her medical degree from Nilratan Sircar Medical College in India, and completed her internal medicine residency at Good Samaritan Hospital in Cincinnati, Ohio. Before beginning fellowship, she worked as an internal medicine hospitalist across several hospitals in the Banner Health system, where she developed a strong foundation in complex inpatient care.

Dr. Kundu’s research interests center on the integration of Artificial Intelligence into clinical Gastroenterology, with particular focus on enhancing endoscopic quality metrics, optimizing diagnostic accuracy in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).

Her recent scholarly contributions include presentations at major national and international conferences, including ACG, EASL, and AASLD, highlighting work in advanced fibrosis prediction, non-invasive MASLD diagnostics, and AI-based clinical pathways. Through her multidisciplinary academic efforts, Dr. Kundu aims to leverage innovation, technology, and evidence-based medicine to advance the field of Gastroenterology and improve patient-centered outcomes
