May 2024 UPDATE

May 1, 2024:  MESSAGE FROM DR. BOAS

The past few years have been quite challenging for the patients we care for with a pandemic and a never ending barrage of respiratory viruses.  As we get back to some degree of normalcy, I would encourage all of you to do what you can to minimize the impact of these respiratory infections.

The best ways to do this are:

1.  Wash your hands frequently.  As recent history has shown us, it really does make a difference.
2. Continue taking your respiratory medicine(s) as prescribed.  Regular use of these medications helps in minimizing the impact of viral illnesses.
3. Obtain your yearly Influenza (flu) and Covid-19 vaccines per the American Academy of Pediatrics Vaccination schedule.  At this time, our practice is recommending obtaining both vaccines in October in order to have optimal benefit during the viral season.
4. For routine office visits, notify our staff if you or your child is ill so that appropriate precautions can be made.  A mask will be available for any ill person.

We appreciate your trust and confidence in our practice's ability to provide the highest level of medical care in the safest environment possible.  Feel free to contact us with any questions.

Be Safe! Stay Healthy!

Dr. B
