We will be operating on a modified holiday schedule for the rest of the week. Please remember to call the on call doctor if you have any concerns about your child's health or need immediate advice. If you are contemplating the ER, please call us first! We may be able to assist by phone and avoid a trip for your family during this sick season.

We hope everyone is staying healthy and has a happy holiday season!

Flu season is here in full force! The flu can cause fever, cough, sore throat, body aches, and feeling very tired.

💉 Preventative care is key.
Yearly flu shots, regular checkups, and healthy habits can help protect your child. We still have flu shots available. Call to schedule an appointment if you have not done so already!

🧼 Ways to help prevent the flu:
✔ Wash hands often
✔ Cover coughs and sneezes
✔ Keep sick children home from school
✔ Stay up to date on vaccines and well visits

🤒 If your child gets the flu:
✔Keep them home and let them rest
✔Make sure they drink plenty of fluids
✔Use fever reducers as directed by your provider
✔Call our office if symptoms are severe, last more than a few days, or if you are worried.

If your child has flu symptoms or you have questions about prevention or care, please call our office. We are here to support your family!

One of the most common car seat questions we get? "When can we turn it forward facing?" Our answer? Keep your child rear facing as long as safely possible! Check out this excellent explanation from the Car Seat Lady (and yes, it is ok if their legs are scrunched!)

Rear-facing is 5 times safer than forward-facing
