His clinical interests include living- and deceased-donor liver transplantation, open and minimally invasive HPB surgery and pancreatic surgery. Max also lists laparoscopic and robotic donor hepatectomy among his transplant interests. The appropriate operation depends on liver disease severity, tumour or biliary anatomy, donor evaluation where relevant and multidisciplinary assessment.

Dr. Srivastava completed MBBS and MS in General Surgery at Goa University and DNB in General Surgery through the National Board of Examinations. His advanced training includes an HBLT fellowship at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, Fellowship of the American College of Surgeons and training as a Fellow of the American Society of Transplant Surgeons in Rochester, New York.

Max also records his role in establishing transplant units at several major Indian hospitals.

For a liver-transplant or complex HPB opinion, patients should provide recent liver-function tests, imaging files and reports, endoscopy or pathology where relevant, previous operative records and details of current treatment. Transplant candidates require additional assessment of disease severity, infection risk, cardiopulmonary fitness and donor options before eligibility, surgical approach, expected stay or cost can be determined.
