Our office policy requires patients to follow AAP & CDC vaccination guidelines. The safety of our patients is our paramount concern. Existing patients will be on this vaccine schedule ; new patients will be on this vaccine schedule. The same vaccines are given on both schedules. The differences are a result of different suppliers providing different combinations of vaccines. If your child has discomfort following an immunization, you can find helpful information here. 

There is a lot of confusing and contradictory information on the internet about vaccine safety; credible resources are the Centers for Disease Control, American Academy of Pediatrics, and Immunize.org.
