Vacunas

Bay Colony Pediatrics strongly believes in immunization. Dr. Ramchandra has seen and diagnosed many deadly infectious diseases in her 20+ year international career. We strongly believe that vaccines save lives, are safe, and are needed. We strongly believe that everyone needs flu vaccine, HPV, and Men B vaccines.

 

All new patients are required to bring their shot record for the first visit. We are completely integrated with the state vaccine registry IMMTRAC. All vaccines that we administer are immediately sent to IMMTRAC.

 

If you do not want vaccines or want an altered schedule or refuse to enter data to the state registry, please find another practice that can suit your needs. In case the parent chooses to remain with us, we will accommodate them; however, for small unvaccinated children with fever, we may ask the parent to take them to the ER. For our vaccine policy, please click here. 

​

We follow the immunization guidelines recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP). For information about these vaccines and the diseases they protect you from, please click here. 

​

Vaccine schedules are complex for catch-up in case you have missed vaccines. Our computer program use Artificial Intelligence algorithms to predict what vaccines you need based on what was given in the past. We export data to the Texas state vaccine registry.
