More than 25 years ago we began providing expert pediatric care in a Christian setting. Although we now serve more than 14,000 patients in our five clinics, our roots remain unchanged: Jesus Christ is the vine and we are the branches; apart from Him we can do nothing (John 15:4-5). Appointments with visiting pediatric specialists are available for: cardiology, allergy, gastroenterology, pulmonology, child and adolescent psychiatry, pediatric neurodevelopmental, speech and language therapy, and nutrition needs.

The staff and doctors are nice enough. Only went there 2 times. For my 2week and 2month old visit and won't be going back. Now don't get me wrong, I am not an anti-vaxxer. However, I don't believe every vaccine is needed for every child and all at once. What I didn't appreciate was getting a 45 minute lecture on my decision not to vaccinate at this time.
For example, I refuse the hep B vaccine because our family is at 0 risk of catching it! No reason to treat for something when no one in our family has it and babies tend to stay away from unprotected sex and intravenous drug use. Granted when my LO is a little older and risk of finding needles on the public playground (doctors example) then maybe I'll get the shot.
But once again, at 2 months old, not at risk of any of those. To sum it up, I will not go somewhere that will just blindly follow the blanket guidelines rather than looking at what the risk is for MY child and OUR situation! I do not believe in this logic and did not feel my decision was respected.
