In our pediatric practices, we advocate for children to receive the recommended vaccinations as per the schedules provided by the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Vaccines are a safe and effective means of preventing diseases and health complications in children and young adults.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding vaccinations, we are available to discuss them during your child's next visit.
