Dr. Lanna McClain, Pediatrician: Local Love Healthcare 2024

I can’t imagine a better career than being a pediatrician. For me, the best part of practicing pediatrics is seeing children grow from infancy to adulthood and impacting that life positively. Of course, the hugs I get from my patients are pretty great too.”

As a mother of two college-age children, Dr. Lanna McClain of Cook Children’s Pediatrics truly understands the challenges and joys of parenthood. From tummy aches and sniffles to anxiety in both kids and parents, she knows how important it is to listen to concerns and provide the best possible care. When diagnosing conditions and developing care plans, Dr. McClain always asks herself, “What would I do if this were my child?” because raising healthy children is her top priority.

Dr. McClain earned her undergraduate and medical degrees from Texas A&M University (WHOOP!). With over two decades of experience as a pediatrician, she helped open Cook Children’s Pediatrics in Burleson in 2010 and has been providing exceptional care ever since. Outside of the office, Dr. McClain enjoys reading, yoga, playing the piano, guitar, banjo, and ukulele, and spending time on the water boating, fishing, and paddle-boarding with her husband.

Dr. McClain is currently welcoming new patients to her practice. Whether you’re a new parent or looking for a pediatrician who truly cares, she is here to support your child’s health journey.
