Infant Vaccine Schedule Near Portage Park
Infants receive the most vaccines in their first two years of life when protection matters most. We administer vaccines at the two-month, four-month, six-month, and twelve-month well-child visits.

School Entry and Booster Vaccines for Chicago Kids
Chicago public and private schools require specific vaccines before children can enroll. We review your child’s immunization record and administer any missing doses before the school year begins. Booster shots for DTaP, MMR, and varicella are commonly needed at kindergarten entry. Our clinic helps Chicago families meet all school vaccine requirements without last-minute stress.
Adolescent and Teen Vaccines at Our Irving Park Clinic
Teenagers need a new round of vaccines as their immunity from childhood shots begins to fade. We administer the meningococcal, HPV, Tdap, and annual flu vaccines for adolescents in Chicago. Our pediatrician discusses each vaccine with both the teen and the parent before administering it. Keeping teens current on vaccines protects them and their classmates at school.

Our pediatrician reviews all past records before recommending which doses are still needed. Families new to Chicago or switching providers can bring existing vaccine records to their first visit.
