Meet Dr. Christina Sherrod
Christina Sherrod, MD, FAAP knew she wanted to be a pediatrician when she was twelve. Between her love of reading, math, science, babysitting and the inspiration of her own pediatrician, she felt a calling to help kids grow up healthy and strong.
Dr. Sherrod attended the University of Texas at Austin for undergraduate training (Hook 'em horns) and then completed medical school at UT Southwestern in Dallas in 2004. After three years in pediatric residency at the University of California in San Francisco, she returned to Texas to practice rural medicine. For eight years she treated families both in and out of the hospital, caring for kids from newborns all the way through high school graduation. During this time she married and became a mother to two beautiful children, Gavin and Nori, who inspire her daily to be a better pediatrician and mother.
In 2019, Dr. Sherrod returned to the Dallas/Fort Worth area with her family, working at Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children where she cared for medically complex children who were undergoing orthopedic surgery. After learning much from amazing colleagues there, she realized that her true passion remains in primary care. She joined the Cook Children's family in Southlake and is looking forward to watching families grow while helping them through both the ups and downs of parenting. She welcomes families who have questions about development, breast feeding, growth, nutrition, exercise, education and parenting. She also feels comfortable treating patients with developmental issues, complex medical problems, learning problems, and ADHD.
In addition to her love of pediatrics, Dr. Sherrod enjoys spending her free time with her family. Together they cook, ride bikes, play games, worship with their church family, and explore the great outdoors.
Dr Sherrod is one of the best pediatricians! I know now that my kids are in a good hands. Dr. Sherrod is a very knowledgeable and she makes my children feel special! She remembers every previous conversation they had about their life and gives them her honest opinion. We love her!

LOOOOOVE Dr. Sherrod. I've been missing our pediatrician from when we lived in Oklahoma and Dr. Sherrod has brought that comfort back to me. I feel like she genuinely cares about me and my children. She hasn't even met one of my boys yet and she already remembers his name. So thankful for her!

Dr. Christina Sherrod has excellent communication skills with my special needs daughter who has Down Syndrome. She addressed my daughter's issues and treats her with respect and dignity. Dr. Sherrod goes the extra mile in my daughter's overall health and has followed up with a phone call at home at least 3 times since she joined this practice. Dr. Sherrod has initiated blood tests that pertain to my daughter's condition out of an abundance of caution so we have peace of mind checking for potential related health issues. Dr. Sherrod is very caring, affable, knowledgeable, and takes the time to get to know my daughter and her medical issues. Dr. Sherrod is an excellent doctor!

We were new patients with her at another office before she transferred to Southlake but she is so wonderful with my son...we drive an hour to see her. My son is autistic and going to any doctor is a chore...it is something that gives him anxiety. Well Today after getting tested for multiple things, he was worked up so him and I were sitting on the floor because that is how he was coping...Dr Sherrod just had me stay where he was comfortable, squated down and took care of him on his level. She is a phenomenal Doctor. We will continue to drive an hour because we know that he will be taken care of by her. She is absolutely wonderful and we are so blessed to have her as his primary physician.

Dr Sherrod was absolutely amazing! We have been going to this practice for 11 years and today was by far the best experience we have had. She has never seen my child before, and we were there for a sick exam; but she slowed down and took time to understand all of my child's needs. She gave me resources and even said she was going to do research during her lunch break to ensure that we meet all of his needs.
