Have you heard about a recent study that highlighted the importance of proper vaccine storage and handling?  The report found that improper storage of vaccines at temperatures beyond those recommended and the administration of outdated vaccines are not uncommon practices in some settings. Children/adolescents are not directly harmed in these situations; however, they may remain at risk due to a less than protective response from a less than optimal vaccine.

Please be certain that our vaccine supply is current and stored properly. Our Vaccine Coordinator ensures that we are following the latest guidelines recommended by the Center for Disease Control (CDC). We take the safety and quality of the vaccines your family receives at Genesis Pediatric Medicine very seriously. Let us know if you have any questions or concerns.

Thank you for your trust,

Dr. Mark
