Christina Merritt, MD

Dr. Merritt has practiced medicine for 15 years and is board-certified by the American Board of Pediatrics. She's a fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics and an active member of the San Antonio Pediatric Society.

Dr. Merritt grew up in the small Houston suburb of Katy, Texas, and knew she wanted to be a doctor from age eight when a teacher taught her the science behind the human body's functions.

Dr. Merritt earned her bachelor's degree in biology from Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas, and completed medical school at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio, where she discovered her love of pediatrics. She completed a residency at the same institution.

When she's not caring for patients, she's often on the tennis or pickleball court.
