We wish to welcome all our new and current patients and encourage you to utilize our Maple Avenue Pediatrics Web Site. If you are visiting our practice for the first time, use these helpful links to review the HIPAA Privacy Policy. You can then print an Acknowledgement of Receipt of Privacy Policy, New Patient Form and Child’s Health History form, complete them at your leisure and bring them with you for your first visit. This will help to save time before your visit with the doctor.

 

We have also received a “new” vaccine in the office.  We are now giving Prevnar-13 to replace Prevnar-7.  This vaccine contains 13 subtypes of Streptococcus pneumonia.  It will provide better protection against meningitis, blood infections, pneumonia and ear infections.  We will be giving one dose of this vaccine to all children under the age of 5 who completed their Prevnar-7 series.

 

We have also begun to offer Gardasil to boys ages 12 and up.  This vaccine has already been given for several years to girls.  The vaccine provides protection against the 4 subtypes of Human Papillomavirus with the largest disease burden.  It is a 3 dose series in which the second dose is given 2 months after the first dose and the third dose is given six months after the first one.  In boys the vaccine protects against genital, oral, and anal warts and cancers.  It will also protect against the transmission of HPV to females where it can cause cervical cancer.

 

            Also, don’t forget to make your camp and summer physical appointments now!
