Vaccinations for Children

At our healthcare facility, we firmly advocate for the significance of childhood vaccinations and following the recommended immunization schedule for children. Vaccines stand as one of the most crucial health-promoting interventions we undertake as healthcare professionals. To ensure the well-being of all our patients, we strictly adhere to the vaccine schedule for children provided by the esteemed American Academy of Pediatrics and the Center for Disease Control.

We also emphasize the importance of young adults and children receiving the recommended immunization schedule for children published by the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Centers for Disease Control. The impact of vaccinations for children cannot be overstated, having saved millions of lives since their inception. Thanks to extensive scientific studies and data gathering over years and decades, we can now protect our children safely from numerous life-threatening diseases.

Our dedication to safeguarding children’s health is reflected in our requirement for parents to adhere to the vaccination schedule for children recommended by medical professionals. Countless brilliant scientists and medical experts have tirelessly worked to develop the best methods of protecting our children. By adhering to these schedules, we are collectively taking proactive steps to ensure their safety.

We encourage parents to educate themselves about vaccines, understand their design, and understand why administering them in accordance with the published schedules is crucial. The more you learn as a parent about the measures that preserve your child’s health and safety, the better equipped you are to avoid unforeseen illnesses, some of which may be life-threatening.

DR. ANA M. HERNANDEZ-PUGA

Pediatrician
One of my favorite quotes is from The Little Prince: “It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.” This quote has guided me in my vocation as a pediatrician – to truly treat my patients, I need to see them with both my eyes and my heart.
