Important information for our patients… Today’s guidance from the CDC does NOT follow science. We reject this guidance.

Today’s action to weaken the birth-dose recommendation for the Hepatitis B vaccine disregards data supporting the effectiveness of the Hepatitis B vaccine, and creates confusion for parents about how best to protect their newborns.

Administering the birth dose is crucial for protecting children from both perinatal and early postnatal transmission of Hepatitis B virus – and preventing a lifelong condition that can lead to chronic liver disease, cirrhosis, liver cancer, and death.

Families should be able to rely on the CDC for clear, evidence-based guidance when making important vaccination decisions for their children. We urge the CDC to reject this recommendation and uphold its commitment to science and public health. The consequences of failing to do so are too severe and the potential harm too great.

Leaders in LASIK®

We are Leaders in LASIK and offer lots of other ways to improve your vision.

John C. Meyer, MD has performed over 15,000 laser vision correction procedures. He first used the excimer laser while completing his Fellowship in Refractive Surgery and Corneal Diseases at Emory University during 1994 and 1995. As such, he is one of the first doctors in the country to have had access to an excimer laser. LASIK is a great option but we also offer many other vision correction procedures that may be right for you.
