We understand families may have questions regarding recent changes to recommendations suggested by the CDC. We will continue to follow the best science available and continue to recommend the best protection for our patients. If you have questions or concerns about vaccines please discuss them with your provider or send them a message through the patient portal. We are here for you and would not recommend anything we would not do for our own children.

Did you ever wonder why the Axolotl is the perfect mascot for a pediatric practice? Well the Axolotl is the Peter Pan of salamanders because they remain in the larval stage all their lives and never “grow up”. Serving kids we try never to fully “grow up” and still try to see the world through the eyes of a child. In truth adults have so much to learn from children. May 2026 be the year we are kinder to each other. Much love from the SDP family!

🚨 Health Reminder for the Holiday Season 🚨

At South Dayton Pediatrics, we’ve been seeing a big rise in Flu A and Flu B cases, and YES! Covid is still around too. It’s definitely making its rounds everywhere right now, especially with kids.

As we head into the holidays with family gatherings, school events, and travel, please take the proper precautions to keep everyone healthy:

🧼 Wash hands frequently
😷 Cover coughs and sneezes
🤒 Keep sick kids home
😷 And honestly… wear a mask if you’re sick or around a lot of people.

Let’s do our part to protect our little ones, our families, and each other so we can enjoy the holidays as healthy as possible ❤️

Stay safe & well! 🎄✨
