Immunizations

We Support Immunizations

We believe in immunizations and its role in preventing communicable diseases. In line with the recommendations of the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Centers for Disease Control, the practice does not accept or retain patients who do not vaccinate. If you have questions about the vaccine schedule, Dr. Rao is open for discussion.
