Our family is growing! This week we welcomed another new member of our faculty. Dr. Christina Davis joined our family medicine practice at Moncrief in Fort Worth. Here are a few facts about Dr. Davis in her own words:

About Me: I was born in Lewisville, Texas, and grew up in Frisco, Texas—so I’m not too far from “home”!

Educational background: I earned my medical degree from the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston and completed my family medicine residency at JPS in Fort Worth.

Hobbies & interests: I love dancing, enjoy barre classes for exercise, traveling to new places, and scrapbooking my favorite memories!

Interesting fact: I am officially the biggest Selena (Quintanilla) fan you’ll ever meet!

Welcome to the department!
