Tennessee Valley Pediatric has no respect for parents or patients rights.
Because of the risks associated with administering multiple vaccines simultaneously, especially when given at the young age of two months old, my family has chosen to adhere to an alternative vaccination schedule.
This means that our children will receive their vaccines, but they will not receive more than 2-3 at a time. We will also delay vaccines for a few more months. The current vaccination schedule begins at two months old, and babies routinely receive eight vaccines at the same visit.
Research shows that the more vaccines given at once, the higher the risk is of adverse affects or even death. (http://www.jpands.org/vol21no2/miller.pdf)
Yet, the staff at Tennessee Valley Pediatric have refused to honor our wishes and allow our children to receive their vaccinations on a slower schedule. They stated that this was not allowed, and our children could not continue to be patients if they did not receive their full vaccinations according to their schedule. read more
