Meet Dr. Christina Sherrod
Christina Sherrod, MD, FAAP knew she wanted to be a pediatrician when she was twelve. Between her love of reading, math, science, babysitting and the inspiration of her own pediatrician, she felt a calling to help kids grow up healthy and strong.
Dr. Sherrod attended the University of Texas at Austin for undergraduate training (Hook 'em horns) and then completed medical school at UT Southwestern in Dallas in 2004. After three years in pediatric residency at the University of California in San Francisco, she returned to Texas to practice rural medicine. For eight years she treated families both in and out of the hospital, caring for kids from newborns all the way through high school graduation. During this time she married and became a mother to two beautiful children, Gavin and Nori, who inspire her daily to be a better pediatrician and mother.
In 2019, Dr. Sherrod returned to the Dallas/Fort Worth area with her family, working at Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children where she cared for medically complex children who were undergoing orthopedic surgery. After learning much from amazing colleagues there, she realized that her true passion remains in primary care. She joined the Cook Children's family in Southlake and is looking forward to watching families grow while helping them through both the ups and downs of parenting. She welcomes families who have questions about development, breast feeding, growth, nutrition, exercise, education and parenting. She also feels comfortable treating patients with developmental issues, complex medical problems, learning problems, and ADHD.
In addition to her love of pediatrics, Dr. Sherrod enjoys spending her free time with her family. Together they cook, ride bikes, play games, worship with their church family, and explore the great outdoors.

Dr. Sherrod does a wonderful job with the physical exam being thorough but also making sure she's helping my daughter to feel comfortable. She always appears engaged and present while discussing issues with my daughter and myself and really shows she cares about her overall well being. She's an awesome pediatrician!!

I have nothing but positive experiences with Dr. Sherrod and her team for the past year my infant and I have seen them. I started out with a different pediatrician and office (not Cook's) and it was such an all-around horrible experience. I then found Dr. Sherrod who was the biggest blessing and provided the most positive experience. I respect and appreciate her very much.

My pediatrician, Dr. Sherrod, is AMAZING! There are not enough good words to say about her. She is so skilled and thorough, while also warm and down to earth. She is friendly yet very confident in her delivery. She is helpful, smart, and kind. As a first time mom of an adopted child, she has been an absolute blessing.

Dr. Sherrod always takes time to listen to all of our ridiculous stories and issues. She never once makes me feel belittled or that an issue is too big or even too small.

Dr. Sherrod and her medical assistant. We drive an hour or more to be seen by Dr. Sherrod because she truly cares for her patients and how they are taken care of. I never feel rushed by her and she always is willing to listen to my concerns, help come up with a game plan and get things taken care of.

Dr. Sherrod is amazing! We drive 45 minutes one way to see her and pass several other offices along the way. Occasionally, we have a longer wait time in the room but it is because she truly cares about all of her patients. She is thorough and practices evidenced based medicine! She came in the room at 5pm or just after and never once did I feel rushed to leave. She is amazing!

LOOOOOVE Dr. Sherrod. I've been missing our pediatrician from when we lived in Oklahoma and Dr. Sherrod has brought that comfort back to me. I feel like she genuinely cares about me and my children. She hasn't even met one of my boys yet and she already remembers his name. So thankful for her!

Dr. Christina Sherrod has excellent communication skills with my special needs daughter who has Down Syndrome. She addressed my daughter's issues and treats her with respect and dignity. Dr. Sherrod goes the extra mile in my daughter's overall health and has followed up with a phone call at home at least 3 times since she joined this practice. Dr. Sherrod has initiated blood tests that pertain to my daughter's condition out of an abundance of caution so we have peace of mind checking for potential related health issues. Dr. Sherrod is very caring, affable, knowledgeable, and takes the time to get to know my daughter and her medical issues. Dr. Sherrod is an excellent doctor!
