Do vaccines contain preservatives? Stabilizers? What’s thimerosal and is it safe?

Before flu season starts, take 5 minutes to read this pediatrician-approved guide on vaccine ingredients. It answers the questions parents are asking, with research you can trust.

All vaccines contain antigens. Antigens make vaccines work. They prompt the body to create the immune response needed to protect against infection. Antigens come in several forms. The form used in a vaccine is chosen because studies show it is the best way to protect against a particular infection.....

✔️ It counts as a sports physical too!

These poisonous plants send approximately 40 million Americans to seek medical care, and we'd love for you and your children to not be one of those this summer!

Poison oak, ivy, and sumac can cause itchy, blistering rashes from an oil called urushiol found in their leaves, stems, and roots. Help your child avoid contact, and wash skin and clothing right away if exposed. Poison hemlock is much more serious; it’s highly toxic if ingested and can be harmful through broken skin or inhaled when the plant is disturbed. If your child has a rash that’s spreading or painful, shows signs of a severe reaction, or may have come into contact with poison hemlock, please call us! We’re available by phone 24/7 to help guide you.

To protect against mosquito bites, eliminate their habitats by removing standing water from birdbaths, tires, buckets, wheelbarrows, pools, small containers, and gutters, and chlorinate pools, hot tubs, and saunas.

Also, protect yourself and your children during peak mosquito times (dusk and dawn). Use insect repellent containing DEET and dress in light clothes that are long-sleeved and pants when possible.
