Vaccinating A Child

Vaccinations and Immunization Information and Schedule

At MFM Health, we provide vaccination services based on the most recent guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Massachusetts Department of Public Health (MDPH). Immunizations are an important part of preventive healthcare, helping reduce the spread of vaccine-preventable illnesses across all age groups.

​

Patients are encouraged to discuss vaccination needs with their primary care provider to develop an individualized schedule. Our team coordinates vaccine administration as part of your ongoing care plan.
