Meet Dr. Meredith Drake
Dr. Meredith Drake was born and raised in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, graduating from Lake Highlands High School. She earned her Bachelor of Science degree in zoology at the University of Oklahoma, where she met her husband Colin.
After completing medical school in Fort Worth at University of North Texas Health Science Center, Dr. Drake moved to Ohio for her pediatric residency at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center. "I love pediatrics because I get to help children become the happiest and healthiest version of themselves."
A few years after joining her group at Cook Children's Hurst, Meredith and Colin had a sweet baby girl. "She taught me that you can't learn everything from books and residency rotations. So much of the advice I give parents now is from my own experience with my daughter. She has helped me connect to families in such a wonderful new way."
Outside of medicine, Dr. Drake enjoys traveling, yoga, cycling, and spending time with Colin, their daughter, and their Weimaraner, Norman.

This was the best experience. We changed pediatrician and this was the first time at a doctor's office that she wasn't terrified. It normally at least 2 people just to get her vitals because she's screaming and trying to get away. It was such a good experience. She was calm, I left not feeling terrible about taking her, and the doctor actually spent more than 2 min with us. Definitely will be our new doctor and would recommend!

We absolutely love all the staff and doctors at this practice. (Patient) has been seen by all others when Dr Drake is unavailable. They have all (including Dr Drake) made lasting impressions. We love that our child can be seen quickly when he is not feeling well. We constantly refer parents to this location for all these reasons.
