This page contains documents and links that will provide you with information regarding vaccines that are provided to our patients.
The New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) has provided a Recommended Childhood and Adolescent Immunization Schedule, which we follow in our office. Our vaccine schedule is based upon the vaccine manufacturers that we use and meet or exceed the NYSDOH recommendations.
Effective for the 2019-2020 school year in New York State, non-medical exemptions are no longer allowed.
The 2020 - 2021 New York State School Immunization Requirements are here.
We are expecting the 2020 - 20201 Flu vaccines in our office towards the end of August. Dr. Albert is scheduling visits as early as 7:00AM. We will be calling patients to schedule their flu shots, as well as their well-child visits, but if you would like to schedule an appointment sooner, please call us at 518-273-3732.
When an immunization is administered, Dr. Albert will provide you with a Vaccine Information Statement sheet for each vaccine. Vaccine Information Statements (VIS) are information sheets produced by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). VIS sheets explain both the benefits and risks of a vaccine. If you prefer, the VIS can be sent to the patient portal, instead of receiving a printed copy.
If you have any additional questions regarding immunizations, please feel free to call the office and someone will assist you. |
