CHILDHOOD IMMUNIZATIONS (443) 523-1740
Cuidado del Beb é y Vacunación del niño

We provide routine childhood immunizations on the first and third Thursday of each month from 8:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m.  For an appointment, call 443-523-1763.

Each year, thousands of children become ill from diseases that could have been prevented by appropriate vaccinations.  Contact your child's doctor or the Somerset Co. Health Dept. to make sure your child's immunizations are up-to-date.
