Dr. Stephen Reed excelled in science. While he loved the testing and analysis, there was something missing... people. A teacher in high school began teaching from a medical physiology book and it blended together Reed's love for science and people. He became part of a Boy Scout Medical Explorers post and volunteered at his local hospital.
The exposure he received through that program inspired him to become a doctor. After observing different surgeons in the operating room, he was most intrigued with orthopaedics. It is a "hands-on" specialty where the results are quickly seen and easily measured.
Dr. Reed also enjoys the relationships he builds with his patients. The rewards of his career are being able to see patients resume activities without pain, and know that he played a part in that process.
The Central Florida area is a perfect place for Stephen Reed to follow his commitment to people. He loves to practice in hospitals that are large enough to provide the services needed, but small enough to know the staff that cares for his patients. He also likes to work with hospital personnel in developing systems and procedures for the improvement of patient outcomes.
Dr. Reed and his wife have 4 children and love the family atmosphere of this area. If you can't find him in the office or at the hospital, he's probably on a field somewhere cheering on his favorite player.

Best doctor and team I have ever had. Truly caring and compassionate, I trust them with my care
Can’t say enough about him, his daughter, and their staff!!!
Great visit. Compassionate doctor.
I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Reed and his PA, Ashley. They are both fantastic. I’ve already had one knee surgery with Dr. Reed and am now scheduled for the other knee. The level of care, communication, and compassion I’ve received has been exceptional. Dr. Reed is thorough and reassuring, and Ashley is incredibly supportive, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. They make a stressful process feel manageable, and I’m truly grateful for the care they provide.
I would give Dr Reed and Ashley a higher rating than this if I could
Great informs you exactly what to expect Very honest.
Excellent work
He answered all my questions and gave me my options. He was helpful and polite.
Very nice and down to earth Dr. He explains things so that a person can understand. Dr Reed has done both my knees for replacement with both problems
He is what you call a Doctor magician! Just kidding! He is awesome. I tell you after a month of my surgery. I would literally forget about a service that I had. That’s how successful it was. Excellent doctor! I’m getting ready to do my other one on the other side and the days can’t come fast enough. Very impressed.
