Our office is now offering an additional vaccine, Trumenba. This vaccine protects your child against Meningitis B. This should be administered at age 16 years of age and a second dose given 6 months after the first. Please call our office (315) 598-6785 to set up an appointment or let your pediatrician know at your child(ren)'s physical.

Has your teen been vaccinated against meningococcal meningitis? Teenagers can face devastating effects in less than 24 hours - and are at an increased risk for this rare but potentially life-threatening disease. That's why the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends a second vaccination as early as age 16 - even if your teen was vaccinated at age 11 or 12 years.
