Our Vaccine Policy

All of our physicians believe that vaccinations are the most effective and important way to protect you and your children from serious infectious diseases. We endorse the immunization schedule set forth by the American Academy of Pediatrics, which is based on decades of validated research and safety. We also believe that a vital aspect of the physician-family relationship is a shared understanding of this importance. We welcome families to be curious, ask questions, or share any concerns that you may have. However, if you should elect not to immunize your child in alignment with your physician’s recommendations, we feel that we cannot continue the relationship and will ask you to find another practice for your child.
