Clinics Poster updated 9.19.23

Additional clinic info: 

We will not be immunizing children at the drive-thru, but children are welcome at any of the other clinics (must be accompanied by a parent or guardian).

Please be advised that coming later in the day may reduce wait times, as the first few hours are the busiest.

Please bring your insurance card. All major insurance providers are accepted. If you do not have insurance, a standard dose flu immunization is $40 (cash/credit/debit/check) and a higher dose immunization is $80. If you are unable to pay, you may qualify for a free or reduced-cost flu immunization.

The new COVID-19 immunizations will also be available at all clinics, while supplies last. You must bring your COVID-19 immunization card and insurance card.

At the Drive-Thru Clinic on 9/20, we will have new Pfizer doses for those with insurance, and a very limited supply of new Moderna doses only for those without insurance or whose insurance does not cover Covid immunization. 

These are the current recommended immunizations for children age 7-18:
