Immunization & Well Child Visit Schedule
We follow the Well Child Visit Schedule recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics. After age 2, we recommend annual appointments with one of our pediatricians through age 18 to assess your child’s healthy growth and development.
The American Academy of Pediatrics has confirmed that vaccines are both safe and necessary to prevent potentially life-threatening disease. The Centers for Disease Control state that vaccines reduce the risk of infection by working with the body’s natural defenses to help it safely develop immunity to disease.
