Important Vaccination Update
If you or your child were vaccinated at one of our Care Centers between January and June of this year, 2010, you may need to be revaccinated. We have discovered that the some vaccines may not have been stored at the correct temperature. This means that the vaccines may NOT be effective in protecting you or your child.

What should I do if I (or my child) received a vaccine at one of the above Care Centers between January – June 2010?
Your health is our number one priority. We strongly recommend that you be re-vaccinated. There is no charge for the visit or vaccine. Please call our toll-free number to schedule an appointment or speak with a nurse at 1-877-657-8987, between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. Monday to Friday and 9 a.m. to noon on Saturdays.
Sonoma County patients: we will hold a special central vaccination clinic at 3883 Airway Drive in Santa Rosa. Hours are 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday to Friday and 9 a.m. to 12 noon on Saturdays. Please call the toll-free number at 1-877-657-8987 to make an appointment.
Although you DO need to be re-vaccinated, there are no short- or long-term harmful effects from the original vaccine, or from being vaccinated again so soon after the initial immunization.
Re-vaccination is a precautionary measure to make sure that you are fully protected. If you choose not to be re-vaccinated, you may still be vulnerable to illnesses the vaccine was intended to protect you against. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience this may cause you. The care we provide to patients is our primary concern and we have put into place additional procedures to ensure this will not happen again.
