Did you know that?

The “CDC” (Center for Disease Control) recommends ages 6 months and up should receive it.

How do you get the vaccine?

Call the office to schedule an appointment or ask your provider while you are in the office.

Will there be a walk in clinic?

 Yes, it will be on Oct.16th  9-12, Open to all our patients.

Is my only option a shot?

No, we have adult Flumist which is available now and it’s inhaled through the nose. Children’s is coming soon!

What if I am worried about the shot what should I know?

  • If you are allergic to eggs or you are running a fever you may not be eligible to receive the vaccine please ask your provider for more details.
  • We have a small quantity of preservative free vaccine. 

Please check with your insurance first to see if it’s covered. You would be responsible if not covered by your insurance.
