About
At Premier Pediatric Consultants, PLLC, Dr. Rhett McLaren delivers comprehensive pediatric primary care to children from newborns through adolescents in San Antonio, Texas. He brings over 30 years of pediatric experience across military, academic, and community settings. That breadth spans the delivery room, newborn nursery, intensive care unit, and outpatient practice. Dr. McLaren built the practice around a clear philosophy: outstanding care in a compassionate, nonjudgmental environment that nurtures relationships between patient, family, and doctor. He offers three access options to fit different families. Full membership covers all in-person and telehealth primary care services. Telehealth-only membership serves families who prefer virtual care or live at a distance. Pay-as-you-go consultation appointments give non-members access to focused, expert attention for specific concerns. Appointments run about 60 minutes. Dr. McLaren makes himself available 24/7 by phone, text, email, and video for urgent needs. Same-day and next-day visits are the standard, not the exception.
