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.
Dr. Terrell is the best doctor. She seems to just know all about us and it's a very personable thing and she really is thorough with how she explains things and she listens to feedback and my kids love her. They ... they really love her especially during the physicals and things. She makes them feel comfortable. They trust her. She's just amazing. I'm so so glad that we have her. – Patient family

She talked directly to my child and kept him engaged while discussing his health/treatment plans. She is very gentle and patient with him while he just talked and talked. In my opinion, the fact that he talked to her and stayed engaged the entire visit assured me that he was comfortable with her. In fact, as we left, he commented on how nice Dr. Terrell was to him.

I have had a good experience with the office and nurse staff at Keller's Cooks Pediatric Clinic when trying to schedule a same day sick visit or have medical questions regarding symptoms that my daughter is experiencing. They have always called back the same day and within a 2 hour window. I would say they try their best to have my daughter seen the same day I request a sick visit. The front desk has been consistently curtious during the checking in and check out process.
