Attention, Parents & Patients!
We have received our flu vaccines. We wanted to notify all, especially our middle and high school kids to get this off your “TO DO” list before the time crunch that comes with academic and extracurricular activities. Get protected from missing a week of school and sports and putting another stress on your GPA. Also, if this is the first time you are receiving the flu vaccine under age 9, you will need 2 doses one month apart. Please call our office to schedule ---first come, first served.
As many of you have seen, there is a lot of construction going on with the parking lots at SouthPark Pediatrics. Our designated SouthPark Pediatrics parking spots are moving soon. Attached is a map showing how you will enter the parking lot and access our NEW DESINGATED PARKING SPOTS. As of right now the new designated parking spots are just labeled RESERVED but that will be changing to a SouthPark Pediatrics designation soon. As always, please select a VISITOR, parking spot, FIRST, and if none available, park in our designated spots.
With Halloween right around the corner, now is the perfect time for any patient weighting 44 pounds, age 5 and older, to learn how to swallow a pill using the candy corn method. If you feel your child is ready, you should cut off the white tip of the candy corn and practice swallowing, without chewing, and with water.
Just an FYI for all patients involved with active team leagues, middle/high school athletics, and Boy Scouts of America: We expect our families to be compliant with all SouthPark Pediatrics follow-up. All athletes who see a cardiologist, have had any orthopedic related injury, or been diagnosed with a concussion must be compliant with follow-up and have received clearance from the specialist in order for us to complete your forms.
