Why Childhood Immunizations Are Important
Keeping your child safe requires regular medical visits, physicals and immunizations. We provide lots of valuable information to parents so they can make the best medical decisions for their children. From initial medical visits to follow-up care, we enjoy what we do, and we want to make a difference in the lives of all the children we see.
Safe, clean and comfortable, our Chattanooga Children's Clinic locations offer various services such as same-day sick visits, annual physical exams, developmental screening and general health awareness. Making an appointment for immunizations for your child is just another way for you to help keep your child safe when they're at school or in other social situations.
Many schools, sports programs and after-school activities require children to have these immunizations so they can safely participate.
