Whitney Mascorro, MD

Dr. Mascorro is a native of Ozona, graduated from Texas A&M, UT Houston Medical School and completed her residency at UT Southwestern - Parkland Memorial Hospital, considered one of the finest obstetrics and gynecology programs in the nation. There she won the prestigious Medicus award “for outstanding clinical care, knowledge, teaching and dedication to compassion and professionalism,” which is given to one exceptional resident each year. She also won the Excellence in Laparoscopy award.

As a woman, wife and mother, Dr. Mascorro has an appreciation for the specific needs of her patients. Obstetrics and gynecology is an extremely rewarding and diverse specialty for her, spanning the care of women from teenage to senior years in both the surgical and medical realms. Dr. Mascorro says a young woman’s first experience at the gynecologist’s office is extremely important in setting the stage for ongoing care. It also is a tremendous opportunity for educating patients. She tries to make the most of the visit in terms of teaching and starting a relationship in which her younger patients feel comfortable talking about their concerns.

When Dr. Mascorro is not working, she will be found enjoying her family and supporting her husband at Hardin-Simmons football games, decked out in purple and gold.
