**Current Issues** (updated 1/09/2012)
- Flu shots! We have influenza vaccine available in all 3 of our offices. Flu shots are *only* given during shot appointments or other scheduled appointments. Some of our offices will be holding "flu shot clinics" (special office hours for influenza vaccine administration) - please call the office for specific dates and times and to make an appointment. For more information regarding this year's CDC recommendations, please visit our Influenza vaccine page.
- As of March 2011, the AAP recommends that all children should ride in a rear-facing carseat until 2 years of age (see Car Seat Information for details).
- Sign up for the new patient portal: As most of you know, we started using an electronic health record (EHR) system in June 2010. One feature of the EHR is the patient portal. For now, you will be able to use the portal to update your information (address, insurance, etc.), and we will be using the portal to send you appointment reminders as well as other non-urgent information, such as lab results, by e-mail. Eventually the portal will allow you to schedule appointments, request refills, and do many other routine functions. To get more information and create an account, go to https://mycw4.eclinicalweb.com/prim/jsp/login.jsp.
- We have walk-in hours for sick visits in all 3 of our offices Monday through Friday at 8:00 am only. You must be signed in by 8:15 am. We do not have walk-in hours on the weekends. All weekend visits are in the Laurel office by appointment only. The office opens at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday morning and 9:00 a.m. on Sunday morning.
