Meet Dr. Heeten Masters

Growing up, I always pretended that I was a physician, and felt as though my pediatrician was a part of my family. The positive impact my pediatrician had on me and my interest in medicine at a young age led to my passion of working with parents and families to help develop healthy, active children as their primary care physician.

I went to medical school in Fort Worth at UNTHSC Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine. I completed my pediatric residency in Louisville, Kentucky, but being born and raised in Arlington, I decided to settle back here with my wife and beautiful ENERGETIC daughter, who has given me a parental perspective on pediatrics. She has taught me more patience than I thought was possible! In my free time, I enjoy watching collegiate sports, cooking, traveling to various destinations with excursions, and spending quality time with my family.

My professional interests include childhood preventive medicine to improve overall health maintenance with focus on vaccines and allergy/asthma, as well as newborn education. I enjoy teaching my families various health strategies in order to promote healthy habits that follow the patients into adolescence and adulthood. I look forward to growing with you and your family here in Arlington.

    We were told Dr. Masters was behind in his appointments, but we didn't feel like we waited too long at all. Definitely appreciated the heads up. We did have to recheck his height as what written down and what I heard were both off. The visit was great as usual.

  • August 02, 2025

    The individual that checked us in was wonderful. She asked my son directly about his check in. He's 10 and old enough to speak for himself. She was also very kind when we checked out to ask if we needed any documentation for school. The best front desk staff of any pediatric care facility we've visited.Also Dr. Masters for being thorough and clear when sharing concerns about weight gain and talking through the benefits of getting blood draws now vs waiting.

Doctor Masters is always fantastic, taking the time to explain everything clearly and answer all of my questions with patience and expertise.It's clear that the staff at Cook Children's in Arlington are not just doing a job-they are dedicated to the health and happiness of their young patients. I am o grateful for their exceptional care and highly recommend this facility to any family seeking a supportive and caring environment for their child's medical needs.

    As a parent that just moved from another state, finding a good new pediatrician can bring some anxiety. I cannot stress enough how wonderful our experience was with Dr. Heeten Masters; his approach is absolutely over the top. He listens carefully, and he explains the information like no other. I feel very happy that we found this practice. From day one to make an appointment and the new process of a new patient was flawless.
