The office will be closed next week for Spring Break. If your child needs a prescription, please call the office tomorrow to ensure it is addressed before our closure.

During this time, all calls will go to our answering system. If you have a question or concern that needs attention before we return, please leave a message and a team member will get back to you.

If you have a newborn who needs to be seen while we are closed, please leave a message and a team member will contact you to make arrangements.

Thank you in advance for your understanding. We hope you all have a wonderful Spring Break!

We are seeing an increase in pertussis (whooping cough) in our community and young children are most at risk. The good news? Protection is possible.

Ways to protect your child:
✔ Stay on schedule with the DTaP vaccine
✔ Keep babies away from sick contacts
✔ Make sure caregivers and family members are up to date on their Tdap booster
✔ Practice good hygiene: cover coughs, wash hands often

Pertussis can be serious, but prevention is powerful.

Did you know one vaccine protects against THREE serious diseases?

✔ Diphtheria
✔ Tetanus
✔ Pertussis (whooping cough)

The DTaP vaccine is a safe and effective way to protect your child early in life. Prevention is powerful and it starts with staying on schedule.

✨NATIONAL PEDIATRICIAN DAY! ✨

We may have missed National Pediatrician Day yesterday, but our appreciation never stops!

This post from Dr. Zachary Rubin really resonates. Pediatricians today face unprecedented challenges, not only caring for children but also combating misinformation to keep our patients safe and healthy.
