COVID-19 VACCINE INFORMATION
At Skagit Pediatrics, we strongly believe that the COVID-19 vaccination is a safe and effective tool to prevent serious illness and hospitalizations from COVID-19 in youth. We encourage our patients and family members to get the COVID-19 Vaccine.
We are happy to offer COVID-19 vaccine at scheduled COVID-19 vaccine appointments, but we are also likely able to offer the vaccine when you child is here for their scheduled check-up! Please call our office at 360-428-2622 for an appointment.
