Vaccines

We firmly believe in the effectiveness of vaccines to prevent serious illness and to save lives, and we firmly believe in the safety of our vaccines.  All children and young adults should receive all of the recommended vaccines according to the schedule published by the Centers for Disease Control and the American Academy of Pediatrics.

Vaccinating children and young adults may be the single most important health-promoting intervention that we perform as health providers and that you can perform as parents/caregivers. The recommended vaccines and the schedule of their administration are the results of years of scientific study and data gathering on millions of children by thousands of our brightest scientists and physicians.

Bee Healthy Pediatrics requires all parents to vaccinate their children according to the recommended schedule (with the exception of 4 non-required vaccines). While we are happy to answer questions and discuss the safety and efficacy of the vaccines, if parents chose to deviate from the accepted schedule or to delay beginning routine vaccination, they will be discharged from our group and be expected to find a different primary care source.
