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.
