At Woodstock Pediatric Medicine, we’re so lucky to have team members who care deeply, not just for their patients, but for the people and moments that matter most.🍁

Today, we’re kicking off our Daily Gratitude Series with Shannon Dobson, CPNP, who shared what she’s feeling thankful for this season:

“I’m thankful for my family: a great husband and three happy, healthy children, a healthy granddaughter, and a new one coming in January! I’m grateful for my puppy, for the amazing people I work with, and for a job that I love.” 🐾🧡

Thank you, Shannon, for the warmth and care you bring to our team and our families every day!

Let’s talk antibiotics. 💊

During Antibiotic Awareness Week, we’re helping parents understand when antibiotics are needed and when they’re not.

✔️ Antibiotics treat bacterial infections, not colds or viruses
✔️ Using antibiotics when they aren’t needed can make them less effective over time

At Woodstock Pediatrics, we prescribe responsibly and always talk through your child’s symptoms and treatment options.

Questions about medications or your child’s care plan? Reach out to schedule an appointment with one of our providers. We’re here to help every step of the way. 💙

😮‍💨 RSV season is here, and here's what parents should know:

Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is very common this time of year, especially in infants and young children, and we’re already seeing cases in our community.

Most RSV infections are mild and manageable at home, but for some babies and toddlers, it can cause more serious symptoms like wheezing or trouble breathing.

Here's what to watch for:
- Runny nose
- Cough
- Fever
- Trouble feeding or breathing (especially in babies under 6 months)

If your child is showing signs of RSV or you're unsure about their symptoms, our team is here to help. We can guide you through what to monitor and when it’s time to come in. 💙

Starting with a new provider can feel a little nerve-wracking, but when you find the right fit, it makes all the difference.

“We recently saw Rebecca for the first time… She was sweet, gentle, and patient with my squirmy toddler. So kind & gentle. Absolutely recommend.”

Thank you for trusting us with your care. And way to go, Rebecca! 👏
