You Voted: Mom-Approved (again) for 2025

by S. Fitzgerald on May 15, 2025
In The News Meet Our Providers

Every year, DFW Child magazine asks the people who know best — local parents — to share which healthcare providers go above and beyond for their families. It’s not a paid listing or a popularity contest. It’s a parent telling another parent, “This is who I trust with my kids.”

We’re proud to announce that four MDPA providers have been recognized with the Mom Approved title for 2025: Dr. Ralph Fitzgerald and Laren DeYoung from our Flower Mound office, Kim Mowery from Flower Mound, and Dr. Lisa Shumate from Coppell. Each is featured in the May 2025 issue of DFW Child and in the online Mom Approved Directory.

To the families who took the time to share our providers’ names — thank you. Your referral is the greatest compliment we can receive, and we don’t take it lightly.

Congratulations to Dr. Fitzgerald, Laren, Kim, and Dr. Shumate!

"We like MD Pediatrics because everyone in the office is friendly, the doctors are great, and if your child is sick, they will get your child into the office that day to see someone."
