August is National Immunization Awareness Month (NIAM). This annual observance highlights the importance of getting recommended vaccines throughout your life.
South Tabor Family Physicians understands that busy schedules can sometimes get in the way of scheduling important appointments and to receive routine vaccinations. This month, we encourage you to give us a call or talk to your doctor or nurse to ensure you and your family are protected against serious diseases and getting current on routine vaccinations!
