Behind on Immunizations?
Contact the WCHD nursing staff and they will schedule you an appointment to create a personalized schedule. At this appointment, we evaluate previous immunizations, listen to parental concerns/questions, educate about herd immunity and disease processes, and create a schedule that best fits the infant’s needs that you can present at any clinic. This service is not a part of the VFC program, sliding scale fees apply.
