Immunization Schedule
Below is the recommended childhood vaccination schedule from birth through 5 years as outlined by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). Dr. Nash believes strongly that one of the foundations of well-child care is the prevention of serious diseases. Feel free to inquire about what vaccinations your child needs to insure his or her health.
