Flu Shots
We usually receive our flu vaccines mid October.
We strongly encourage all patients to get vaccinated, particularly our high-risk patients. High risk patients include patients under age 5 or over age 65, pregnant patients and obese patients. Also, patients who have diabetes, chronic lung disease, asthma, heart disease, liver disease, kidney disease or cancer are at higher risk of developing complications from the flu.
FluMist
FluMist is a nasal spray version of the influenza vaccine, which is
now available for ages 2-17. No needle required!
Flu shots are now available at most pharmacies!
We are fully supportive of you obtaining a flu shot from your pharmacy
if it is more convenient. Please let us know when you have it done so
that we can update your records.
