Vaccination & Immunization Resources

The privilege of parenting involves caring for our children’s overall health; ensuring that they’re up to date with their immunizations is a key component. Our goal is to provide parents with education and reputable, proven information.

To promote best practices of public health, and in the interest of all families seen in our office, we follow the American Academy of Pediatrics recommended schedule of childhood vaccinations. Because of our physicians’ confidence in the importance of vaccines, and in keeping with accepted industry standards, we do not offer accommodations for any delayed or alternative vaccine schedules.
