Our Vaccine Philosophy

Children Immunization 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 recognize that this choice may be a very emotional one. We will do everything we can to convince you that vaccinating on time is the right thing to do. If you should absolutely decline to vaccinate your child, we will ask that you find another health care provider who shares your views. We will provide you adequate time to make this transition, and will continue to provide health care to your child while you complete this process.

Vaccine Safety Resources

Fact Checked:  AAP information and resources on vaccine safety.


An important notice regarding COVID vaccines: 

Please note that the vaccine must be thawed in advance of your appointment and must be used once prepared.

Because this is a costly and time-sensitive vaccine, we require at least 24 hours’ notice for any cancellations or rescheduling.  Due to the required thaw time, missed or late-canceled appointments result in wasted doses. If this becomes a recurring issue, we may be forced to reconsider our ability to continue offering the vaccine.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in helping us minimize waste and maintain this service for our patients.

Vaccine scheduling for 2025

Scheduling for most vaccine types is available at Carolina Kids for existing patients that are up to date on their well exam. Please call the office to schedule an appointment. If your child is scheduled for their annual exam, they may get vaccines at that time!
