Meet Dr. Mary C. Brennan
I knew early in high school that I wanted to be a physician. My desire came from watching my parents struggle with health issues. As I progressed through medical school, I knew that pediatrics was the field for me. I wanted to partner with parents or caregivers in a way to help them find the right path. I'm passionate about providing parents and then older children/teens with information and recommendations that can help them thrive physically and mentally.
I attended LSU in Baton Rouge for undergraduate, and then to LSU School of Medicine in New Orleans. I studied pediatrics at Baylor College of Medicine and Texas Children's Hospital in Houston.
In 1990 I moved to Fort Worth and opened my private practice with Deborah Hucaby M.D. When Cook Children's formed the physician network, we were one the original practices to join. Shortly, after that Dr. Alice Phillips joined me in our current practice.
As a pediatrician, I'm blessed to see the children move from total dependency to independence through childhood to adolescence.
When not at work, I love spending time with my three sons. We love being outdoors with our 3 dogs, riding bikes along the many trails in Fort Worth, volunteering at our church, or trying out new hobbies - like fly fishing.

Dr. Brennan is always incredible, both of my boys see her. She consistently gives amazing advice and explains everything thoroughly. My kids are 12 and 7 and she talks to THEM when she asks questions about their health and explains what she's doing every step of the way. Never have had a doctor like her, she is the best! I don't remember the nurse my son saw at this visit but she was so personable too and made everything quick and painless.

Dr. Brennan has been our PCP for almost 13 years and she's nothing short of amazing. She's patient, kind, listens to me and my boys and always asks about the other (if only 1 child is seen). She makes me feel like she's part of our family, not just a doctor we see a couple times a year.
-

Our regular provider was out of the office so we were worked in with another doctor for a same day sick visit. While we did have to wait a while, I can honestly say in our 16 years at this office this Is the only time time I remember waiting more than 5-10 minutes. No complaints here!

-
February 25, 2024
Considering there were no appointments available via the online portal that morning, I messaged Dr. B for recommendations. Dr. B scheduled us an appointment & even though we had to wait in the exam room a little longer than usual, a little wait was expected & we were grateful to have been seen. Dr. B was very thorough & made my son(who was nervous) very comfortable as well as the staff! They were very professional & explained everything in such a way that my son was at ease & knew what was transpiring! The stickers at the end were the icing on his cake, best doctor's office in my opinion!
