Consistent immunization may increase the herd immunity and protect those most vulnerable from contracting contagious diseases. These include very young infants, the elderly and those people with a compromised immunity such as cancer patients. A decline in vaccinations will result in diseases, once thought to be eradicated, causing epidemics once again. Failing to vaccinate may not only affect your children and loved ones but also the health of everyone surrounding you.

Remember, being anti-vaccine is equivalent to being pro-disease!

Summer is around the corner, and with that comes increased exposure to sun. This is the time to have any suspicious moles or other skin lesions checked out by one of our doctors. Don’t leave this too late………it could be life-saving!
