C. Daryl Curry, MD

My mission is to nurture a joyful, healthy childhood for my patients, guiding them to become content, contributing adults. I provide tailored care, valuing each child's needs, and foster a space where parents are integral, welcomed participants in their child's health journey through open dialogue and collaboration.

Whole-Child Care

Dr. Curry believes good child healthcare begins by educating parents to make informed decisions regarding all aspects of a child’s health, including nutrition, physical activity and mental development. This whole-child approach affects all aspects of his approach to treatment, including advocating for proven childhood vaccinations, using medication minimally to allow the child to develop their own naturally occurring defense responses, and monitoring physical, mental and emotional development as the child progresses from infancy through childhood, puberty and adolescence.

In response to the flu epidemic of 2010, Dr. Curry created two separate waiting areas in his office – one for children visiting for routine examinations, checkups or vaccinations and one for children needing care for infectious illnesses – so that well-being children would not be exposed to infections.

His courteous, easy manner and colorfully decorated offices have made him a favorite of children and families from across the Metroplex.
