Meet Kim Andrews
Hi, I'm Kim, APRN, CPNP-PC, and I've been a Nurse Practitioner since 2015. I've been working in McKinney for the past 5 years at Cook Children's Lake Forest, previously McKinney Pediatrics. I was born and raised in Carrolton, Texas. My family moved to Cairo, Egypt when I was 13 years old, where I attended and graduated high school. This experience made a big impact on my life, teaching me the importance of diversity and inclusion. I graduated college with a business degree but found that the business world was not for me. It was after marrying and having my first child that I returned to college to pursue nursing. Through my nursing career, I found a love for working with kids, which led me to earn a degree as a pediatric nurse practitioner at the University of South Alabama. I love working with kids, and educating families about caring for babies and kids all throughout their lives. In particular, I love caring for newborns and first-time parents. I find it very rewarding to watch my patients grow into happy, healthy young adults. I also have a great affinity for teaching parents about ADHD and helping to treat their kids with this disorder. As a mom of two kids with ADHD, I have a personal understanding of how this disorder can affect the family and life of children. I've been married to my husband for 25 years and have two sons. Being a mom has helped me to understand the challenges of parenthood and helped grow my knowledge of pediatrics with first-hand experience. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, gardening, cooking, traveling and loving on my three sweet dogs.

"I 100% recommend Cook's children McKinney..From the moment we walked in, the staff was warm and welcoming, making my child feel completely at ease. The doctor was incredibly patient, thorough, and attentive, taking the time to explain every step of the process to both my child and me. The clinic itself was clean, organized, and equipped with everything needed for a smooth visit. My child actually left smiling and looking forward to their next check-up! Thank you for providing such excellent care-we're so grateful to have found this clinic."
