Dr. Jiang is a vaccine friendly pediatrician.

Currently, there are children in our practice who either never receive any vaccines or are selectively vaccinated with certain vaccines. We provide the same compassionate care to fully vaccinated and unvaccinated children.

The benefits of having your children fully vaccinated greatly outweighs the potential risks associated with the vaccines. Therefore, we recommend that all children be vaccinated according to CDC schedule.

Messages to parents who choose not to have their children vaccinated:

Breast feeding your babies for at least 6 months.

Maintain good hand washing habit, and use of hand sanitizer.

Set good examples for your children by eating a healthy balanced diet and exercising regularly.

If an unvaccinated child seen by a new doctor for sickness or fever, then parents need to remind the doctor that the child is unvaccinated. Depending on the situation, the doctor may order more lab tests just not to miss any serious infectious causes.

Try not to bring these children to places where there are many international travelers, such as major airports. Be very cautious if you need to travel to a foreign country with your children. Seek counseling with a doctor experienced in travel medicine long before your trip.
