An electronic version of our handy newborn booklet that answers many of your questions and serves as a guide in the care of your new baby.

 

2010 Child & Adolescent Immunization Schedule
The Schedules lists the ages (birth through 6 years old and 7 through 18 years old) for when each vaccine or series of shots is to be given. If your child or adolescent has missed any shots, contact us to schedule an appointment and to get back on track.

 

Vaccine Safety
We are aware of the many parental concerns about the safety of vaccines in childhood. The following website is authored by the American Academy of Pediatrics and provides excellent, research based information about childhood immunizations, http://www.cispimmunize.org/fam/safety_parent.html.

Vaccine Information Statements (VIS)
Vaccine Information Statements (VISs) are information sheets produced by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) that explain to vaccine recipients, their parents, or their legal representatives both the benefits and risks of a vaccine, http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/pubs/vis/default.htm.
