Vaccines
We believe in the effectiveness of vaccines to prevent serious illness, to promote health and wellness, and to save lives. We also believe in the safety of vaccines.
We believe that children and young adults should receive all of the recommended vaccines which is why all of our Care Centers follow the recommended Vaccination Schedule from the Center for Disease Control (CDC) & American Academy of Pediatrics.
At Neighborly MD, all AAP/CDC recommended vaccines are required with the exception of those typically NOT required by public school, currently including HPV, Rotavirus and seasonal Influenza. Please note: these exceptions should not be construed as our lack of support for them; we believe they are safe, effective and important.
Immunization Policy & Information
In an effort to reemphasize our vaccine policy, please note Neighborly MD, a proud member of Austin Health Partners, is committed to fully vaccinating all of our patients to protect them from preventable deadly diseases. For families with unvaccinated children, our physicians will be happy to discuss any questions or concerns that you have regarding the CDC and school vaccination schedule.
Due to our strong commitment and belief in the importance of vaccines, we are not a good fit for families who are unwilling to commit to this schedule or do not wish to immunize at all. Neighborly MD will continue to accept new pediatric patients and retain established pediatric patients who have compromised immune systems, or have documented adverse reactions to vaccines and are unable to follow the fully recommended schedule.
Please read our complete vaccine statement and feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns regarding this policy.
