Meet Dr. Kristin Favela
Dr. Favela grew up in Austin. She attended Tulane University where she summa cum laude with degrees in Chemical Engineering and Molecular Biology. She was fortunate to attend the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston, both because she was able to realize her calling to provide medical care to children and because she met her husband there. Dr. Favela completed her residency training at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center and her fellowship at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. During fellowship, Dr. Favela developed a focus in differences in sex development in addition to general endocrinology. She is also passionate about patient and family education. ??
She, her husband, and their 2 sons are thrilled to be moving back home to Texas and look forward to exploring Fort Worth.
