My husband and I are expecting a son in October and I'd like to start looking for a pediatrician now. Does anyone have a good recommendation? We would like someone in the University or S. Hulen area. Thanks so much!

Another great pediatrician is Dr. Deborah Vert. She is in a Cooks Children's office off of I-20 and Trail Lake/Woodway. She is great with children. My daughter has been going to her for about 4 years.

I use Fort Worth Pediatrics on Harris Parkway across from Harris Methodist Southwest Hospital. There is also a location on University Dr. (maybe Merrimac Circle), between the Fort Worth Zoo & I-30. Almost every doctor is great! Good luck. Many pediatricians will allow you to visit and speak with them before deciding who you go with.

I would recommend Ft Worth Pediatrics also. They have three offices, one off Hulen, an after hours clinic off University, and another in the hospital district off Rosedale. We use Dr Mark Jones, but have loved all the other Dr's in the practice. They are absolutely the best!

I go to Dr. Carol Brennan and she is located off of Bryant Irvin road and Oamont. Right accross the street from Harris SW Hospital. She is awsome. She came and checked on me and my daughter ,right after having her, every morning that i was in the hospital. Anytime I go to see her for anything she takes the time to listen to what I have to say and always makes sure I understand what is going on. She is really down to earth. She is really gentle on exams with my daughter. Her phone number is ###-###-####. Hope this helps you out!!

I also go to Fort Worth Pediatrics, the location off of Harris Parkway by Harris Southwest. We use Dr. Halpenny and he's wonderful; we've seen Dr. Hayward who is also good, and Dr. Morrow saw my baby when he was 5 weeks old with severe RSV and she admitted him to the hospital and we absolutely loved her as well. FYI, I am a pediatric physical therapist and any family I've worked with who uses this office has nothing but good to say; I've never gotten bad feedback from anyone out of this particular practice. Dr. Worsley gets rave reviews from his patients as well. Hope that helps!

We see Dr. Brad Mercer at the Cook Children's office at Forest Park. It's off University, down by the zoo, behind Hoffbrau. Their number is ###-###-####. The whole staff at that office is great. When Dr. Brad has been out we've seen other docs in the group and my kids love them. Been with that group about 12 years. It's the only pediatrician my daughter has ever had. They also do labs and xrays right there at the office so you don't have to go to another facility. Makes things very efficient. Good Luck!

Congrats on the baby!! I, too, am going to recommend someone from Cook Children's. My kids' dr is Dr Audrey Rogers. I absolutely adore her. She is great with the kids and wonderful at answering questions. She is in a practice with her husband and father-in-law (who used to be my dr back in the day), along with several other doctors. We have seen some of the other doctors too and they are great as well. They have an after hours answering service too. That has come in handy at times. The office is located off of University right by the zoo. Their number is ###-###-####.
Good luck finding a doctor for your little one.

We see Dr. Levine, she is great she has always remembered my sons. The only bad thing is, that it take a while to get an appointment. The wait is terrible. Everytime I go I wait at least 2 hours. But to see her its totally worth it!! She is awesome. I would wait 6 hours to see her!

We go to Dr. Stinson Jones at Fort Worth Pedicatrics. They are all great doctors, his son Mark Jones is also very good. Great group with great hours. They rotate shifts so they are open in the evenings and weekend mornings for minor emergencies. Their office is off Rosedale, however there is another one off University as well.

Hi,
We love our doctor. Her name is Dr. Julee Morrow, and she is with Fort Worth Pediatrics. ###-###-####) She is awesome! We have never felt like we were just a #...or just a file. She and her nurses are very warm and friendly. Both of my girls love going to the doctor! :) She practices out of the southwest office, across from Harris Southwest Hospital in the Cityview area. There is another office off University/I-30, on Merrimac Circle, too. A lot of my friends go to different doctors in that office, and they are really happy with them, too. Good Luck!
