At Metropolitan Pediatrics, we see the benefits of vaccination every day in the health and resilience of the children we care for. We welcome questions and conversations about which vaccines are recommended, when they should be given, and why schedules matter.
Metropolitan Pediatrics follows the immunization schedule and clinical guidance published by the American Academy of Pediatrics, which has not changed for 2026. These recommendations are grounded in decades of pediatric-focused research and are continually reviewed by pediatricians, scientists, and public health experts as new data becomes available.
Our number one goal is the health and safety of our patients. Vaccines are one of the most effective ways to protect children from serious, preventable diseases – especially at the ages when they are most vulnerable – and they help lay a strong foundation for lifelong health.
In Oregon, this evidence-based approach is reinforced by the Oregon Health Authority, which aligns state immunization protocols with guidance from leading national medical organizations.
