Immunization Schedule |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Dr. Pfanstiel recommends vaccinating your children according
to the following schedule. Due to the potency and efficiency of certain
immunizations, this schedule is provided to maximize the effect of the vaccinations and to
properly protect your child. Dr. Pfanstiel also recommends bringing your child into
our office at each of the following checkpoints for a complete
exam. If you do not feel able to do so for any reason, please ensure that the proper
vaccines are administered at the Health Department, or at your local clinic. |
