Immunization

For children under 6, vaccines are particularly vital in protecting against serious diseases during these early, vulnerable years. We administer a series of vaccinations that help shield your child from 16 potentially harmful diseases, including measles, mumps, rubella, whooping cough, and polio. Early immunization is one of the best ways to ensure your child’s long-term health and prevent infections that could lead to hospitalization or more severe consequences. Your child needs shots at birth, 2, 4, 6, 12, 15 and 18 months of age. Immunizations are one of the greatest achievements of medicine. They have been so successful, many parents have never seen most of the illnesses and complications that vaccines prevent. But these diseases still exist.

As children grow into teenagers, their vaccination needs change. We offer immunizations tailored to the needs of adolescents, including booster shots and vaccines that protect against diseases like HPV, meningitis, and tetanus. These vaccines are crucial in maintaining health as your child enters adulthood, providing protection during a period of significant physical and social development.

Immunizing our adolescents with the vaccines listed below is one thing we can do to protect their health for years to come. Getting a vaccine is like updating the body’s immune system, the same way you might update the software on your phone or computer. When all of us do our part to stay up to date with immunizations, it keeps the entire community network healthy and strong! ​​

Adults also need to stay up to date with their vaccinations to prevent the resurgence of diseases and maintain overall health. We provide a full range of adult vaccines, including those for influenza, tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis (Tdap), shingles, and pneumonia. Regular immunizations help adults ward off infections and complications, ensuring long-term health and vitality. As we age, our immune system weakens, making it more important than ever to stay protected through vaccination. Seniors are particularly vulnerable to diseases such as influenza, pneumonia, and shingles, which can lead to severe health issues. We offer vaccinations specifically recommended for older adults, helping to strengthen their immune defenses and prevent serious illness.
