Immunizations are one of the best preventative medicine practices that physicians have available today. Thanks to vaccines, many of the serious and deadly diseases that plagued people years ago are infrequently seen in the United States today. The diseases we immunize against are still seen elsewhere in the world, and everyone is at risk of contracting these illnesses. The best way to protect our children from these diseases is to immunize.
Southdale Pediatric Associates follows the immunization schedules recommended by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP). These schedules have been researched extensively, have proven to be safe, and help ensure that the children following these schedules are protected from these serious illnesses during their most vulnerable ages. For this reason, we do not support alternative or delayed vaccination schedules.
