About Tessa M. Reavis, APRN

  • Tessa grew up in Houston, TX. When she is not working, Tessa and her partner love food and enjoy hunting down the best restaurants. She can also be found taking her shih tzu, Odie, all over town. Tessa also enjoys gardening, walking on the Lady Bird Lake trail, and is an avid Harry Potter fan. Her favorite Central Texas spot is Enchanted Rock, where, she says, “the stars on a clear night are incredible!”

I chose a career in pediatrics because children are the light of my life! I feel privileged to watch them grow up and to be able to help them and their parents along the way with support and guidance. My philosophy is to partner with my patients through open communication and creating a safe space. I want my patients and their parents to feel heard, cared for, and empowered to make the health care decisions that are best for them and their families!

    It was our first time having a doctors appointment with Dr. Reavis, and she was awesome. She took her time revising my son since it was his four-year-old check up. She answered all my questions and concerns. Very nice and friendly. Definitely recommend her to other parents. :)

    My son was so worried about the shot that he was gonna get. The nurse came and told him when I kinda pinch your skin you won't feel the needle go in but the sting. We watched her and she did excellent. He didn't feel it at all. She was the best cause my son is afraid of shots
