Monday Update 9/8/2014/Scary respiratory virus

For those of you who read the news, there is a very scary respiratory virus making the rounds in the Mid West.
I have not seen any cases here yet and I hope that remains the case.

This week's blog post is especially timely...
It gives the basic parameters for when you need to be seen and then reviews basic care.

With ANY virus, if you are worried about your child's breathing they need to be seen.

We are seeing plenty of routine coughs and colds in here, but nothing out of the ordinary.

We are still waiting for the Flu Mist to be delivered.


New Topic.
We had some recent schedule changes and left messages on the phone number that we have in our computer scheduling system. Some folks have made changes and did not receive our messages in a timely fashion. Please make sure we have your updated contact info so that we are able to reach you if we need to!

One more topic.

Stanford has openings in the weight control center for folks between the ages of 8-15.
It is a bit of a schlep down there, but we don't have anything quite as good here in the city.
The contact number for more info is 650-725-4424

Stay well.
Judy
