Vaccines

Vaccines are of paramount importance for the safety and health of children.  

Providing immunizations for your children is the single most health-promoting step parents can take.  Though you may hear negative things about vaccines, it is clear from decades of research that they are safe.  Vaccines do not cause autism or other developmental problems.  Vaccines do prevent diseases that are still a threat to children and adults here in the U.S. and throughout the world.  

Decades of research has helped he Center for Disease Control and the American Academy of Pediatrics arrive at the best schedule for vaccine administration and I strongly advise following the recommended schedule.  This is the best way to keep children safe and healthy. 

We do not recognize or participate in so called "alternative schedules" e.g. Sears, Dr. Bob's.

Note:  All immunizations given at our office are automatically posted to the Wyoming State Immunization Registry.
