Meet Dr. Rachelle Herring
As soon as she shadowed a pediatric neurologist during her first year of medical school, Dr. Rachelle Herring knew pediatric neurology would be her chosen field. For her, having the opportunity to care for children and their families in a fascinating and ever-changing discipline is a true privilege.
Dr. Herring treats a wide variety of neurologic disorders, from the straightforward to the rare and complex. No matter the diagnosis, her goal is to establish relationships with the families of the children she treats in order to make the best individualized treatment choices for each child, while providing the highest quality of care possible.
When not at Cook Children's, Dr. Herring is spending time with her husband, son, and two dogs. She loves good food, board games and indoor cycling.

Ms. Lacey, the nurse, was very courteous and professional. She showed genuine interest and willingness to help in any way. I think if I would have wanted a Coca Cola, she would have brought one on a silver platter. She is an A1 nurse!

Loved that Dr. Herring double checked and looked through notes from my kiddos other providers. With all of her doctors and diagnoses it's nice to know the doctor is aware of not only her neurological issues but is looking at the big picture too.

Everyone in the neuro department was incredibly friendly and helpful. There were staff members all over when arriving to the hospital in general that were able to give directions, as we didn't know where to go.

I greatly appreciate the ladies working at the front counter, they were very helpful and polite. The young lady who took my daughter's vitals was sweet and patient with my daughter. Dr. Herring took the time to listen to my daughter's concerns and addressed them to where she could understand. For that I am extremely thankful.

Dr. Herring was very attentive and I didn't feel like she rushed through the appointment. She gave us the time we needed and answered all of our questions as well as explaining in detail the possible actions needed. She was very kind and helped put (Patient's) mind at ease as he was very stressed about the process. She made us feel comfortable and heard, and that isn't something you can always come home saying after a doctor's visit. Thank you to Dr. Herring!
