Meet Dr. Christina Chang
Dr. Chang's path to becoming a pediatrician all started when, as a high school student, she first began volunteering in the neonatal ICU at her local hospital. She watched in awe as the doctors performed medical miracles on the tiny humans to help them grow and thrive, but also treasured the moments she had getting to the know the families and holding the babies when they needed comfort.
Raised on the West Coast, Dr. Chang received her undergraduate and graduate degrees from the University of California at Los Angeles. During graduate school, she was also trained as a behavioral therapy and provided therapy for a sweet boy with autism. She was a second grade teacher, before earning her medical degree from Western University of Health Sciences in Pomona, California. Dr. Chang completed her internship and residency at Lucile Packard Children's Hospital at Stanford University in 2007.
Prior to moving to Dallas in 2012, she worked as a pediatric hospitalist where she cared for hospitalized children in the pediatric ward, pediatric ICU as well as healthy newborns. She was the physician lead of the Mother Baby Unit there. After moving to Dallas, she continued caring for hospitalized children at Children's Health Dallas and Plano before moving to a private pediatric primary and urgent care clinic in Frisco.
Dr. Chang is board certified by the American Board of Pediatrics.
She is a mother to two wonderful daughters who have taught her some of the greatest lessons of becoming a better person and pediatrician each and every day. She also enjoys reading, running, mountain climbing and playing board games with her husband and children.
She is excited to be a part of the Cook Children's Windsong Primary Care team and appreciates the privilege of partnering with families in helping children reach their fullest potential in all aspects of health--- physically, emotionally, socially and mentally.

Dr. Chang is the best pediatrician. She is caring, compassionate, and knowledgeable. She always takes their time to get to know our kids and build a relationship with them. She's the absolute best. I would like to recommend her to more people, but I want her to be available for appointments. Lol The only how this office could improve is by having some weekend appointments. I really appreciated that at [...].

We really love Dr. Chen she is very kind and informative. I love how she explains everything to my child and asks permission. I have never experienced this with any other pediatrician. She will check in with him to make sure he understands and asks him if he has any questions. She is very approachable, informative, and makes the whole experience comfortable. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Dr. Chang listened to (patient) and explained things directly to her. (Patient) is 17 and it helps her feelings of independence to have her doctor ask her the questions about her health. I'm there, but my role is limited.
