Currently, we do NOT accept Harvard Pilgrim, United Healthcare, Humana, and Tufts Health Plan.

Can You Get The Flu Vaccine And The COVID-19 Vaccine At The Same Time?

Yes, patients may take care of multiple vaccinations for seasonal protection at the same time. We do, however, recommend that you allow yourself time to rest after a multiple-vaccination appointment, as you may experience fatigue and other mild symptoms. Speak with us directly during or before your appointment to get your personalized recommendations on resting time. 

Can You Get Vaccinated While Pregnant?

Yes, you can, but this also depends on your individual needs and health requirements. Please speak with your physician or our team directly before your vaccination appointment to ensure that you are eligible for the vaccine you’re scheduled to receive. 

What Vaccines Do I Need To Travel Out Of The Country?

What Vaccines Do My Kids Need For High School?

Your children will likely have already received certain vaccines needed for high school, but the list of immunizations they need to enter high school includes: Tdap, Polio, Hepatitis B, HPV, MMR,  and Varicella.

What Vaccines Do You Need For Most Colleges?
