Meet Dr. Amani Terrell
Amani Terrell, M.D., FAAP, was born and raised in Fort Worth, TX. As the daughter of two doctors, she was fortunate to have role models who encouraged her to push past racial and social stereotypes in order to achieve academic and professional success.
She knew she wanted to go into the medical field as a teenager. She was a student athlete in high school and held the 5A state record in the 3200 meter run for several years. In college, her desire to become a doctor helped her make the difficult decision to decline several athletic scholarship offers in order to focus on her academic studies.
Dr. Terrell graduated with honor from the University of Texas at Austin. She then attended medical school at the University of Texas Southwestern in Dallas. There, she developed a passion for caring for children after going on a mission trip to Juarez, Mexico, where she helped provide medical care to children and families, some of whom had never seen a doctor. Dr. Terrell then completed her pediatric residency at Cincinnati Children's Hospital and returned promptly thereafter to Fort Worth to work as a hospitalist at Cook Children's Medical Center. After 6 years of hospital medicine, Dr. Terrell transitioned to primary care.
Dr. Terrell loves what she does and feels blessed to be able care for patients and their families, as well as learn from them as they grow and develop.
On a personal note, Dr. Terrell still enjoys running. On any given day, you might see her running around her neighborhood with her dog and her 2 kids.

Our experience with our last pediatrician's office was not so great, since becoming a patient at this office I have experienced nothing but great service from all staff. The front desk operations are always welcoming and nice, the nurses and doctor very tentative and listen to all of my concerns. Dr. Terrell gives great advice and I appreciate her patience when meeting with us. I feel she pays attention and genuinely takes her time to bond with patient during the visit.

Dr. Terrell was so good with my daughter and navigating some very sensitive subjects. If Dr. Terrell wasn't so caring, thorough, and approachable, my daughter may not have opened up about some things that were really important to know and now we can help her with those things. I think Dr. Terrell should be recognized for this because I think it would have been easy to brush past or not know to hone in where it made sense

Dr. Terrell is AMAZING! She took her time and had a very detailed conversation with us and our child. It was the end of the day and it was a long appointment but she never once made us feel rushed or like she didn't have time to listen to our concerns. Our visit was like a family therapy session because she asked questions and listened to us and our child, gave her opinion and cleared up some of our concerns. I appreciate her staying to talk with us well after office hours when she could have cut us off and rescheduled us if we wanted to talk longer.

The nurses call me back in a prompt manner and were able to assist me with an earlier appointment. This was very helpful as we were able to get (patient) medicine to help her get well 1-2 days sooner. Really appreciate the responsiveness of the staff and office even during the holiday season. The front desk staff were very courteous and communicative with my 4-year old.
