We truly care for you and your family and would hate to see anything bad happen to you or your child. Our provider have experienced tragic incidents that occurred to children that were unimmunized during his training and practice that could’ve been easily prevented by vaccines. It is incumbent upon us as pediatricians to protect both the individual patient, as well as our patient population as a whole, from contagious disease. We advocate following the American Academy of Pediatrics’ recommendations for the immunization of children. Unimmunized children are at risk for contracting contagious diseases which can be debilitating and life-threatening. These unimmunized children in our waiting room may expose our patients to serious diseases such as measles, whooping cough and bacterial meningitis. It is our office policy that parents who have concerns about immunizations seek education from our provider. We do not recommend delaying these vaccines. Vaccines required by the state of Florida for daycare/ preschool/ school entry must be started at age 6 months at the latest. If you refuse to vaccinate your children at least with the required vaccines for daycare , school or college AT ANY POINT IN TIME, we will regretfully ask you to seek medical care with another physician whose philosophy meets your needs better.
