TLC Pediatrics follows the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) guidelines for well care and immunizations. We believe that immunizations are an essential part of that care. Vaccines are a safe and effective way of preventing diseases that can cause life-threatening illnesses in infants and children.

We follow and use the vaccine schedule recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Centers for Disease Control for routine well-child immunizations and screening tests with minor modifications.
