           Happy New Year to our Kidz Docs families! 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           We hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season and winter break. As we begin a new year, we know our patients will continue to grow, learn, and thrive, and we look forward to hearing about all they accomplish in the year ahead. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           We would like to take a moment to address a few common questions and reminders that come up this time of year: 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;

           Influenza 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/strong&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Flu season is here. The influenza vaccine remains one of the best ways to protect children and teens from severe complications of the flu, including hospitalization. It is not too late to receive the flu vaccine. Please call our office or send a portal message to schedule an appointment. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;

           Immunization Schedule 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/strong&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Vaccines have been in the news frequently, and we understand families may have questions. Across the country, we continue to see outbreaks of vaccine-preventable illnesses such as measles and pertussis (whooping cough). 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           The Kidz Docs follows the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) Immunization Schedule, as providing science-based, evidence-driven medical care is central to our mission. Vaccines are safe, effective, and one of the most important tools we have to keep children healthy. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           Our vaccine policy remains in place. Patients are expected to follow the AAP schedule, with immunization checkpoints at 2 years, 6 years, and 18 years of age. Patients on a catch-up schedule must have a signed vaccine agreement and schedule documented in their chart. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           As pediatricians, it is essential that our office remains a safe environment for all patients, including newborns, children and family members undergoing chemotherapy, organ transplant recipients, and others who are immunocompromised. 
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;

           Masks are required for sick patients and accompanying family members. This helps protect our patients, families, and staff. Masking is one part of our broader infection control plan, which also includes surface disinfection, staff vaccination, and nurse triage of symptoms. Thank you for helping us maintain a healthy environment for everyone.

           Our clinicians and staff work hard to provide compassionate care to all families. Parents and caregivers are expected to treat all employees with respect. Name-calling, slurs, harassment, or threats will result in dismissal from the practice.

           We recognize that many families continue to experience financial challenges, including job loss, insurance gaps, or other hardships. If you are having difficulty paying your bill, please reach out to our office so we can discuss available options and support.

           The Kidz Docs does *not* currently provide international travel services.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/h3&gt;&#xD;
&lt;/div&gt;&#xD;
&lt;div data-rss-type="text"&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           If we are able to provide these services in the future, we will update our website at that time.
          &#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      &lt;br/&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;/span&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
  &lt;p&gt;&#xD;
    &lt;span&gt;&#xD;
      
           For pre-travel vaccines and medications, we recommend patients seek care from their health department or a local travel medicine clinic.  When scheduling the appointment, you must clarify if the patient is under 18yrs of age so the clinic can schedule you with the correct provider.  Please be aware that these visits are not covered by insurance.  In addition, please note that Safeway will not provide full travel care for patients under 18yrs of age.
