Common Childhood Illnesses our Children are
Vaccinated Against (2-part Meeting)
October 5 & 19, 7 pm
| In the wake of the most recent financial settlement to be handed down for a vaccine related injury, we are reminded that the topic of vaccines remains as concerning to parents today as it has for decades. Many parents are experiencing a crisis in confidence with our healthcare system for numerous reasons; and vaccines is at the top of that list.
Why are these illnesses so series? Why are we so afraid of contracting them? What will really happen if we do? Will my child truly suffer dire consequences if he or she contracts one of them?
Let's explore the actual illnesses, and let you decide for yourself the answers to the above questions.
This month we welcome Barry Smeltzer, MPAS, PA-C from True Health Medical Center to a 2-part meeting in which we will explore a disease profile of each of the vaccine illnesses; what they look like, how they present, how they are contracted, risks of the illness, and when to get medical help. We will discuss the vaccine associated with each illness, and finally, a short discussion on the latest vaccine policies and legislation.
Barry Smeltzer is a practitioner at True Health Medical Center, which utilizes a holistic approach to health and wellness. Headed by Dr. Anju Usman, THMC specializes in allergies, ADD/ADHD, autism, asthma, gastrointestinal disorders and strives to improve the health of the whole family. He is also a parent of four beautiful children and lives with his wife, Linda, and family in Elburn. http://www.truehealthmedical.com/
