After several years in clinical practice in Dallas, she saw a growing patient interest in non-pharmacologic options, which led her to pursue additional training. In 2019, she completed a Fellowship in Integrative Medicine at the world-renowned Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine at The University of Arizona. She then became a certified Diplomate of the American Board of Lifestyle Medicine in 2020. She has been practicing rheumatology in a traditional format for over ten years in Dallas.

“I have only positive comments for Dr Reddy. She spends adequate time with me; she also responds to my questions through private messages on a patient portal between appointments.
