Change in our Immunization ("shots") policy

Sorry to say it, but due to the increasing cost of buying immunizations, the poor reimbursement from insurance companies and their short shelf-life we can no longer afford to give many rountine immunizations. In many cases, we are actually losing $50-100 apiece on shots.

Happily, the Public Health department administers all routine shots at low cost on an appointment basis.

We are more than happy to continue to see you or your family for:
  • Well Child check-ups
  • Female and Male annual physicals
  • DMV exams
  • employment physicals
  • injuries
  • consultations about travel
We still give shots for:
  • Adult tetanus
  • Adult Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B
  • Pneumonia vaccine
