Meet Dr. Alay Parikh
My interest in medicine began during my high school and early college years as my passion for science grew. I became a pediatrician because it not only allows me to manage and treat acute illness and disease, but also work on preventative health by placing an emphasis on the overall well-being of a child from the moment they are born.
I grew up in the Dallas area and am proud to call North Texas my home. I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, and in my free time I enjoy traveling, reading, and cooking. ?
I am excited to be part of the Cook Children’s and Fort Worth community.?
