Meet Our Staff

Dr. Beverly Ramos was born in Tacoma, WA and knew by the age of five that she wanted to become a veterinarian. Her father’s love of horses along with her mother’s propensity to adopt various stray animals gave her plenty of early exposure to animals, further strengthening her connection with animals and confirming her pursuit of veterinary medicine as her lifelong profession.

After graduation from veterinary school in 1983 and practicing for a year at a small animal practice in Rhode Island, Dr. Ramos and her husband Dr. Paul Levitas, moved to his hometown of Cincinnati. At that time, they opened The Animal Hospital on Mt. Lookout Square. Little did they know how much this hospital would not just grow, but thrive, and yield much personal and professional satisfaction in fulfilling her dream to become a veterinarian.

Besides practicing, Dr. Ramos is a doting mother to Jimmy, their Golden Retriever, and Gavin Wade, a lovable but obnoxious French Bulldog. She also is an avid cyclist, skilled gardener, and an enthusiastic food aficionado (not just cooking but dining as well!).

Dr. Paul Levitas is a graduate of the University of the Philippines College of Veterinary Medicine.

Most recently, Dr. Coe transitioned back into general practice and is excited to continue to provide care for the dogs and cats of Cincinnati! Special interests include Point of Care Ultrasound and working with pet parents on preventative care to avoid trips to the ER.
