You may schedule an appointment for your child's influenza vaccination by calling our office at 615-790-3200, option 3. Preservative Free Fluzone (injection) and Flumist (nasal) are both available by appointment in our office. The American Academy of recommends that all children 6 months and older should be vaccinated. Please note that Flumist is not used for children under two years of age, for those with asthma, for those who have a tendency for wheezing episodes, or a variety of other chronic health conditions. Flumist cannot be given within 28 days of another live virus vaccine (i.e., MMR, Varicella).
If your child is under 9 years of age, and they have never received the influenza vaccine before they will need two doses of the influenza vaccine this year, at least 30 days apart. If your child received at least one dose last flu season they will only need one dose this year.
Flu Vaccine and Flumist will also be available during your child's well child visit. Please let the nurse know if you would like for your child to receive the Flu Vaccine or Flumist at the time of your visit.
Insurance will be billed.
