Cohasset Pediatrics Vaccine Policy
Updated March 1, 2025
At Cohasset Pediatrics, we deeply appreciate the trust you place in us by choosing our practice, and we are committed to providing the highest standard of care for your child.
We strongly believe that maintaining this high standard includes adhering to the immunization schedule recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), and the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). Vaccines are one of the most effective tools we have to protect children from serious, preventable diseases, and we consider them a cornerstone of both pediatric and public health.
In light of our commitment to providing the highest standard of care, should you choose not to immunize your child in alignment with these recommendations, we will ask that you find another practice to meet your child’s healthcare needs.
A strong doctor-patient relationship is built on mutual understanding, and we welcome the opportunity to answer questions or concerns you have about vaccines in an open and evidence-based manner. We recognize that parents face a wealth of information from a variety of sources and are dedicated to helping you make the best decision for your child. Below, we have included some of our most trusted resources to answer common concerns about vaccines.
We value the trust you place in us to care for your family and look forward to continuing our partnership to keep them healthy.
