Family & Geriatric Medicine

Vaccinations help your child to be protected against diseases that can permanently harm him or her. This is your child's shield from serious diseases in our world. This is a simple measure that can save your child's life.

UofL Family Medicine advocates the vaccination of all children. Your child's physician will discuss the risk and benefits of immunization with you and your family.
