We just recently moved to Keller from out of state and need a peditrician. We would like one who is comfortable treating mood disorders in a 12 year old or we will also need another provider who only deals with physicological conditions. Thanks for any input.

It's a process- first find a regular pediatrician (I wasn't a fan of Cook's or the Baylor Clinics- went to both and finally settled on KidCare Pediatrics in Keller) After your initial visit they'll get you a referral to a child psychologist.

In the area most of the child psychologists are connected to Cook Children's you call Cooks- and they will then put you on a waiting list- it can take up to 6 months to get in to see someone. If you have time to do the research you can call all the local Child Psychologists and see if they are connected to the Cook's program- I luckily found one who had just moved to Keller- but her schedule filled immediately- her name is Jaime Young. It may be easier to get in on her waiting list than on the Cooks.

But my advice after going through this a year ago- get in to see the Pedatrician ASAP so you can get on the Cook's list.

We use Dr. Rios in Grapevine. He is a pediatric behavior development Dr. He really helped my daughter. ###-###-####

My boys see Dr. Zwernemann at Southlake Family Medicine, and we've been very happy with her. Not sure about mood disorders, but she's good at listening and does a good job of treating the whole child. I'm not sure if she's taking new patients, though.
