Immunizations

The purpose of public health is to prevent illness. It’s much easier and more cost-effective to prevent a disease than to treat it. That’s exactly what immunizations aim to perform.

Immunizations protect us from severe diseases and also prevent the spread of those infections to others. Over the years immunizations have countered epidemics of once common infectious diseases such as measles, mumps, and whooping cough. And because of immunizations we’ve seen the near eradication of others, such as polio and smallpox.

See a list of the most common vaccinations that we offer:

  • Varicella vaccine  – Var (Varivax), MMRV (ProQuad)
  • DTaP/IPV/Hib/HepB combination vaccine – (Infanrix exa)
  • Meningococcal vaccine – Men ACWY (Menveo) and MenB (Bexsero, Trumenba)
  • Pneumococcal vaccine – PCV13 (Prevenar 13)
  • Hepatitis B vaccine – Hep B (Engerix-B)
  • Hib vaccine – Hib (ActHiB, Hiberix)
  • Human Papillomavirus  vaccine – HPV9 (Gardasil 9)
  • Seasonal Influenza (Flu) vaccine

Safe Vaccinations

It's important to keep your child's immunizations on schedule and up to date, but if your child misses a scheduled dose he can "catch up" later. In our day, vaccines are considered safe. As with any drug, they can have side effects. In most cases these are usually mild.
