In addition to running his practice, Reddy is an active member of many boards, associations, and research councils and international health organizations.
“I am greatly honored by the confidence my peers have placed in me,” says Reddy. “I’m excited to continue working with the broader medical community to ensure all our patients receive the highest possible standards of care. Houston stands out as a place where residents can find some of the best doctors in the world, and I’m proud to be considered one of them.”
