Immunization Policy
We cherish our relationships with our patients and their families. It is truly what makes our job fulfilling.
We understand that as a parent, you may have a lot of questions and fears regarding health decisions for your children including vaccinations. We are dedicated to discussing these issues with you. If after careful consideration, you choose not to vaccinate your child, we ask that you seek an alternative provider for your family. Oso Pediatrics will not provide care for children who are not vaccinated.
We feel that it is in the best interest of your child and our community that you vaccinate and protect your child according to the recommended AAP immunization schedule. (Please see the immunization section below).
In the event of particular circumstances where a modified schedule is essential, you may discuss these details with your physician.

AAP
When it comes to child health, the information available to parents and pediatricians can be overwhelming. Fortunately, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) can help cut through the clutter. Our 60,000 member pediatricians are committed to the physical, mental and social well-being of all infants, children, teens and young adults – and all of the information you’ll find here is supported by scientific research.
Our Vaccine Philosophy
Our practice believes that all children should receive the recommended vaccines according to the guidelines provided by the AAP. Vaccines are safe and effective in preventing diseases and health complications in children and young adults. Regular vaccinations help children ward off infections, and are administered as one of the safest and best methods of disease prevention.
We are happy to discuss your concerns about vaccines at your child’s next visit.
