Dr. Jean McAtee joined UTMB Pediatric Community Based Clinics in 1995 after completing her pediatric residency at Baylor College of Medicine.  She earned her medical degree from the University of Texas Health Science Center in Houston.  With a commitment to ongoing continuing medical education, she maintains board certification by the American Academy of Pediatrics. She also serves on the school health advisory board for CCISD.

Dr. McAtee's practice focuses on preventative care, including maintenance of childhood immunizations, promoting safety measures and encouraging families to help their children maintain a healthy body weight.  As a mother of four children, she understands the concerns of parents; therefore, she encourages active involvement from them regarding their children's health care.  Her scope of practice includes patients from birth through 18 years of age.  In addition to treating common childhood illnesses, she has experience in caring for children with allergies, asthma, atopic dermatitis/eczema and attention deficit disorder.
