❄️ Safety First! ❄️

We want to remind you all of the importance of teaching your kiddos to look both ways before crossing the street, always wear a helmet, and hold on to the railing of the stairs. It looks like our nurse Kendyle was taught to hold on to both cars for safety when falling face first! We’re glad Kendyle used her safety sense and prevented a “go home early day” because “we love you and we need you!” 💙

West Atlanta Pediatrics stance on vaccinations.

As a practice that has been established since 1992, we at West Atlanta Pediatrics, believe in promoting the health, safety, and wellness of our patients and community. We have seen generations of families come through our doors and have enjoyed seeing our patients grow and become parents of their own. As a practice and as individual providers, we are committed to providing care that is grounded in the best available medical evidence.

We will continue to follow the current immunization schedule recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) for our patients. This schedule has been proven to be effective and safe and helps protect the health of children and the community.

We understand that there may be questions or concerns during these uncertain times, and we are always available to provide clear, evidence-based answers to any questions you may have.

We are honored to be entrusted with the care of your children, and we will remain dedicated to providing the highest quality care possible to your family and our community.

🦠 Flu is here!! 🦠

We have seen an increase in office visits related to the flu and are aware of outbreaks within classrooms and schools in the metro Atlanta area.

Influenza in children commonly presents with fever, cough, sore throat, body aches, headache, and fatigue. Early recognition and supportive care—including adequate hydration, antipyretics, and rest—are essential. Antiviral therapy may be indicated for high-risk patients or when initiated within the recommended treatment window. Annual influenza vaccination remains the most effective strategy for prevention and reduction of disease severity. Caregivers should seek medical evaluation for worsening symptoms, respiratory distress, dehydration, or persistent fever.

Contact our office for any concerns.
