Our pediatricians firmly believe in the safety and efficacy of vaccines. Vaccines protect children from serious diseases and save lives. Based on current scientific evidence, vaccines do not cause autism or other developmental disabilities. Vaccines are safe and serious side effects are rare. Below is our vaccine schedule. It follows the recommendations published by the AAP and CDC as of June 1, 2025.
We understand you want what is best for your child and so do we. We know that you are bombarded by conflicting information on vaccines. We can help you get the information you need to make an informed decision.
We require all of our patients to begin vaccinating at two months of age and to be fully vaccinated at two years of age. We can discuss an alternate vaccine schedule that allows you to split up the first three sets of vaccines; however, we require all standard vaccines to be given. We do not give vaccines one at a time and will not break up any combination vaccines. We are not accepting new families who cannot comply with this policy.
The human papillomavirus (HPV), meningococcus B, and influenza vaccines are all recommended and available but are not required. We do not have the COVID vaccine at our office. If you have additional questions, please discuss them with your provider at a prenatal visit, meet and greet, or your child’s next well visit.
