Unhappy Hour is here!

Starting on Jan. 4th, we launched the "Unhappy Hour", which is the walk-in time for acute illnesses in the afternoon.  We will see walk-ins between 5 and 5:30 P.M. Monday through Thursday.  This works much the same as the 8 A.M. walk-in time.

Please note there is no "Unhappy Hour" on Friday afternoons.

Flu vaccine update 10/24/2011

Now is the time to get your flu vaccine!  Early cases of the flu are being detected around the country, so don't wait to vaccinate.  We currently have both the nasal and injectable vaccines available.

If you would like to receive the influenza vaccine, call now to schedule your appointment.  Remember, you must have an up to date physical to be scheduled for the flu vaccine clinic.  If you need a physical, the office will be able to schedule one for you when you call.  

Spring is Coming!

 

Spring is coming and so are the pollens that come with it.  If you suffer from allergies or asthma, make sure you have the medications you need on hand.  Starting preventative medicines for asthma or allergies is better done now than waiting for the symptoms to arrive.  If you are due for a check-up or unsure what you need to battle spring allergies, make an appointment with us as soon as possible.
