In conversation with senior journalist Kaveree Bamzai at the 31st edition of Devi Awards organised by The New Indian Express in Chennai on Tuesday, Reddy, who honoured the awardees, said, "We are all working in collaboration when it comes to training, research and second opinion services, and that collaborative mindset is helping the healthcare system move ahead in leaps and bounds."

She noted that the pandemic also hastened the shift to a more digital existence, that has been very successful for the business.
