VACCINE POLICY We at NuHeights Pediatrics wanted to share with you our Vaccine Policy. Our patients’ health has always been our first priority. There currently is an outbreak of vaccine preventable diseases that is affecting our community. In accordance with the CDC and AAP recommendations, we will not accept patients who do not wish to vaccinate with routine vaccines, within the established AAP immunization schedule, as not vaccinating and under-vaccinating goes against medical advice. We understand that parents may have concerns about vaccines, and invite you to discuss them with our providers. We want you to be comfortable in the care you receive at NuHeights Pediatrics, and most importantly, we want our children to be healthy.
