Dr. R. Reed Stevens
Born and raised in Buffalo, New York, Dr. Stevens traces his roots back 150 years to an Attica dairy farm that his family still operates today.
After a ten year corporate career with three years in Asia, Dr. Stevens returned to Cornell University to pursue a degree in Veterinary Medicine. He fulfilled one of his life long dreams of owning and operating a veterinary practice when he succeeded Dr. Frank Yartz at the Ellicott Small Animal Hospital as the sixth owner of this practice. How surprising to end up owning the same practice where he took his Brittany spaniel as a youth!
Clinically, Dr. Stevens enjoys the wide range of health concerns presented through the dogs and cats the practice sees every day. He has developed a particular interest in dentistry, and the nutritional management of health and disease.
As a past president of the Niagara Frontier Veterinary Association, he is a firm believer in the positive role that veterinarians can play in our community. He led the effort that resulted in 65 regional animal hospitals helping to raise $1.5 M to rebuild the Frank A. McClelland Sr. veterinary hospital at the Buffalo Zoo.
He is also the President of BuffOla, Inc, and part of the Buffalo Micro Parks effort, leading the charge to introduce and complete the first legal and safe off-leash areas for dogs in Western New York.
Dr. Stevens and his wife Carolyn Hoyt Stevens have two daughters, Mia & Josephine, in addition to Poppy, the world’s most remarkable yellow lab, Stella the cat and Harry Potter, a Blue Tongued Skink.
