I absolutely loved Dr. Budhraja. I was so sad when she retired. She was the reason that I found out that my problem was a genetic (auto-immune) disorder. I am so grateful to Dr. Budhraja and Dr. Demhel at UAMS. Most doctors do not think outside of the box (there particular area of expertise), but she and Dr. Demhel listened, believed me, and referred me out. Its rare that you get these kind of physicians now. Kudos to you both! Dr. Budhraja, I hope you are enjoying your retirement.

She took care of my mother, she has taken care of me and now my youngest daughter is her patient. I knew when I met her, while she was caring for my mother that if I ever needed a gastroenterologist she would be the one I would see. I don't think there is a better testament than taking my daughter to see her. She's the best!
