Meet Dr. Colin Fuller

Dr. Fuller is a Cowtown native, and a fourth-generation "Fort-Worther," having grown up in southwest Fort Worth. He played competitive soccer and participated extensively in choir and music, later minoring in music and directing his a cappella group at the College of William and Mary in Virginia. Later, he returned to Texas for medical school before moving southeast for research and residency, where he met his wife Dr. Jenny Fuller, a general ophthalmologist who also practices in the area.

Given his background in vocal performance, Dr. Fuller started his career in otolaryngology/ENT completely certain he would specialize in voice disorders, but early in residency he developed a passion for pediatric otolaryngology. He attended a two-year fellowship program to focus on pediatric otolaryngology, including training in cleft lip and palate, vascular anomalies, open airway surgery and thyroid disorders.

Immediately after fellowship, Dr. Fuller joined the faculty of the otolaryngology residency program at OU in Oklahoma City, where he practiced for 5 years. He earned the outstanding faculty teaching award his first year on staff, and spearheaded the first vascular anomalies multidisciplinary care team in the state of Oklahoma. He succeeded in building a busy, complex practice but couldn't ignore the call to return home to Texas for the sake of his family. He is beyond excited to be joining the otolaryngology team at Cook Children's!

When Dr. Fuller isn't at work, chasing his three young children or taking his wife on a date, he can be found running the Trinity River Trail, singing tenor in his local church choir, cheering on his favorite sports teams (Go Cowboys!) or playing golf.
