What's New?

Advanced Pediatrics joins the American Academy of Pediatrics in recommending that all children over 6 months of age receive the annual Seasonal Flu vaccine in order to be protected from the flu virus. In addition, the AAP also recommends parents of babies under 6 months of age and expectant mothers receive this vaccine. WE NOW HAVE SEASONAL FLU VACCINE AVAILABLE FOR ALL CHILDREN OVER 6 MONTHS OF AGE! Please call our Patient Care Line to schedule seasonal flu shot appointments at your earliest convenience, as supplies may be limited.

The H1N1 vaccine is recommended by the CDC for all children over 6 months of age, as well as for young adults ages 19 - 24. WE NOW HAVE H1N1 VACCINE AVAILABLE FOR ALL CHILDREN (AND YOUNG ADULTS) OVER 6 MONTHS OF AGE! Please call our Patient Care Line to schedule an appointment at your earliest convenience, as supplies may be limited.

H1N1 Vaccine Recall: You may have heard news reports that a few batches of H1N1 vaccine have been recalled by the manufacturer. Fortunately, none of the H1N1 vaccine we have available for appointments has been recalled.

To provide better customer service, we now open our well care schedule three to four months in advance. This makes it convenient for parents of children 15 months of age and younger to schedule their next well care visit while in the office for their current well care visit. This advance scheduling will also make it easier for parents of older children to plan ahead and schedule a visit that most conveniently meets their needs.
