scheduling of vaccinations from the neonatal period
preparation of individual vaccination schedule in following cases:

- catch-up schedule

- in special situations (immunosuppression, removal of the spleen, transplantation, hemostasis disorders, use of drugs containing immunoglobulins, chronic diseases).

Vaccines are:

- prevent the development of severe complications due to infectious diseases

- preserve health and longevity, improve the quality of life

- contribute to the formation of herd immunity

By vaccinating your child on time, you protect your child and everyone else as well.
