Get your Influenza vaccine before Halloween! Call to schedule your appointment.
Two drive thru clinics available at Lenexa office 10/10 and 10/17 from 9-2. Wear your masks. Shorts are advised for kids under four so their shot can easily be given in the thigh.
Flu shots are in! Call to schedule a flu shot appointment during the week, or at one of our Saturday drive-thru flu clinics this October. For the drive-thru clinics, young children should wear shorts, and everyone over age 2 should wear their mask.

Election Day is an invitation to talk with your kids about this ability we have to vote....but how should you do that? You know they are hearing about it and thinking about it. You can help shape their understanding and do it without increasing worry, anxiety or division. Teach empathy. Here are some great tips.

How to Talk with Your Child about the Election
Repost from Dr. Kim's Kids (Winnsboro Pediatrics)
As we approach the holiday season this is an important reminder. If you're exposed to COVID19 don't leave quarantine early, even if you test negative. Missing one holiday is worth the ability to have many more holidays together.
We get lots of questions about this. Remember, you cannot test out of quarantine. A close contact exposure = 14 days of quarantine regardless of your test results on day 2,5,10 or 13 (and all the numbers in between.)
Thanks Juneau County Health Department for the graphic.
The pediatricians were so excited to get their COVID-19 vaccines that they hurried to Shawnee Mission Advent Health as fast as they could last night and this morning to get it!
We firmly believe that vaccines save lives!
