Shalaun J. Hawkins, M.D. was reared in Arlington, Texas. She completed her college education at Texas A&M University, received her medical degree from Meharry Medical College in Nashville, Tennessee and then completed her residency at Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center, Charity and University Hospitals in New Orleans, Louisiana. She began her practice with Dallas Medical Specialists in February 2005 and is Board Certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine.
"I have great respect for individuality and listen carefully to everything patients share," says Dr. Hawkins. "Patient concerns deserve compassion and understanding. Medicine is not a 'one size fits all' experience; it is a partnership between physicians and patients."
Dr. Hawkins' favorite book is "Gifted Hands", by Benjamin Carson, M.D. She has been involved in community programs mentoring children, and enjoys reading, travel and movies.

Great listener and always makes time to address my every question with care. She has never seemed rushed, and I get a sense that I am the focus of 100% of her attention throughout my appointment.
Dr Hawkins is very knowledgeable and very personable.
Omg! A doctor who listens and cares! She answered EVERY question with empathy and compassion. She's my NEW primary for everything health related. She gained a patient for life and my family just gained a true healthcare partner! We have a choice and I just made the best one...Dr. Hawkins! P.S. Did my weights this morning ;)
