#CallYourPediatrician
This toolkit will provide materials to help spread the word – YES, bring your child in and please call your pediatrician if you have any questions or concerns! We know some parents are uncertain about bringing their child to the pediatrician for their scheduled well-child visit, or for immunizations – or if it is better to wait until after the pandemic. Pediatricians’ offices are open and have taken every precaution to ensure the safety of patients, families, and staff.
