“I am truly humbled and deeply grateful for the trust and support you’ve shown me in this election. This victory isn’t mine alone—it belongs to every resident who believes in a united, forward-thinking, and inclusive Oak Brook,” said Dr. Suresh Reddy, a Trustee for the Oakbrook township in Illinois, after winning a second term along with his colleagues, Jim Nagle and Dr. Melissa Martin in the elections held on April 1, 2025.
Dr. Reddy was among the four candidates running to be Trustees for the three openings that were contested. With a population of nearly 10,000 people, the city of Oak Brook is located 15 miles west of the Chicago Loop and is served by a network of major federal, state, and county roads, including the Tri-State Tollway system, the East-West Tollway, and the Eisenhower Expressway.
One of the affluent communities in the nation, Oakbrook’s adjacent neighbors include the communities of Villa Park, Elmhurst, Lombard, Oakbrook Terrace, Westchester, Westmont, Clarendon Hills, Downers Grove, and Hinsdale.
Dr. Reddy, an esteemed community leader and a physician by profession, promised Oak Brook residents that he is “more determined than ever to represent every corner of our vibrant community. Oak Brook stands at a pivotal moment in its growth and development. I firmly believe that through open dialogue, mutual respect, and shared values, we can continue to shape a village we’re all proud to call home.”
Dr. Reddy comes with immense experiences and proven leadership. Dr. Reddy grew up in the suburbs of Hyderabad in Southern India. A financial conservator, Dr. Reddy always had a passion for “uniting and bringing people together.” Recalling his childhood, the dynamic leader says, “It all started during my childhood with bringing neighborhood kids together to play “gully cricket” and also bringing people together in college to organize events, demonstrations, and educational tours. Bringing opposing parties to the table for resolving issues has always been my strong strength since my schooling days.”
Dr. Reddy completed his advanced medical training at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center/Harvard Medical School and has stayed on Harvard Faculty for more than a decade where he had also served as Chief of Interventional Neuroradiology.
