Our Vaccine Philosophy
Our practice believes that all children should receive the recommended vaccines according to the guidelines provided by the AAP. Vaccines are safe and effective in preventing diseases and health complications in children and young adults. Regular vaccinations help children ward off infections, and are administered as one of the safest and best methods of disease prevention.
We recognize that this choice may be a very emotional one. We will do everything we can to convince you that vaccinating on time is the right thing to do. If you should absolutely decline to vaccinate your child, we will ask that you find another health care provider who shares your views. We will provide you adequate time to make this transition, and will continue to provide health care to your child while you complete this process.
