Welcome to 2013

Happy New Year to all.


It has been fairly easy to get acute care appointments and the phone call volume is not too awful, so there isn't anything particularly active out there.

The most common illnesses this week are

*Croup

*A tummy bug ( often intense but doesn't last long. Parents are getting this one)

*A cold/cough/ moderate fever that is lasting for several days ( the kids don't seem as fussy as we would expect with this one)

Reminder that we are holding our flu/immunization clinic on Saturday morning January 5th from 9:30-12:30. This is for Noe Valley pediatrics patients and families. No appointment is needed.

So far it seems that this years Flu vaccine is giving good protection to the strain that is starting to go around.

Stay well!

Judy
