Thinking about my brother today (on the left). He passed away the day after Thanksgiving. It hit me hard and made me reassess where I am and what I want.

If you haven’t done so recently reach out to your siblings. Share what’s happening in your life. Write down each other’s memories so that they can be passed down through the family.

There is no day but today.

Not sure if the data displayed below shows the reduction of febrile seizures in 12 months old who get MMR and Varicella vaccines separately versus using the MMRV vaccine.

Just to let everyone know not only has Influenza A been very active in the area, we just had our fist positive test for Influenza B.

We are recommending for all of the kids to get the vaccine this year, even if your child has already gotten the A strain already.

If you are concerned about the vaccine, let us know, but at least make sure to get one caregiver vaccinated.

At a recent house call for a child at high risk, not only did she test positive but the mother was also ill.

While I was able to prescribe prophylactic Tamiflu for the father, there was no guarantee that he wasn’t just hours away from being as sick as Mom.

Why I am careful about not starting ADHD at the drop of a teachers hat and why I try to go low and slow when I do.

Powerful psychotropic drugs are often the next step, even though their combined effects in young children haven’t been studied closely. ‘I was living in a body hijacked by the medication.’

To my families who have as their Medicaid insurance provider. The state of Indiana will not be renewing their contract for Medicaid services for 2026. Therefore, it is important that you reach out to your insurance contact to make sure that we are assigned as your provider when you are switched to another company. My current recommendation is Anthem And to avoid as Anthem has a better referral base for specialty care.

Because of the snowfall we will be opening later today and staying open for appointments after 5 pm to accommodate everyone’s needs.
