A message from Dr Besson:

“Yesterday, as I have done every year since my med school days, I got my seasonal flu shot.

I do not believe in mandating vaccines for folks, but I would encourage all of you to consider the flu shot. It is extremely safe for almost all people, egg and mercury free, and has a track record of reducing deaths and hospitalization from influenza for adults and vulnerable kids.

I can tell you that with the flu shot, hand washing and the Lord’s blessings I have not experienced influenza since med school, in spite of almost daily exposure!

Now, in preparation for being around family members in the holiday season, is a great time to come in and get vaccinated!

Wishing all of you a healthy Fall, Christmas and Winter season!”
