During her tenure as a White House advisor under the Obama Administration, she contributed to clinical guidelines and initiatives that continue to shape geriatric care in America. Her esteemed career also includes serving as Past President of AMDA – The Society for Post-Acute and Long-Term Care Medicine, where she helped establish best practices in eldercare and long-term care management. Additionally, Dr. Pandya’s involvement in the White House Forum on Antibiotic Stewardship and her participation on the Physician’s Advisory Committee for the National Quality Forum reflect her lifelong dedication to improving healthcare standards and quality for older adults.
