To our CHDC patients,

Montgomery County Health Department confirmed a case of measles in an unvaccinated Montgomery County child who had traveled internationally. Potentially exposed individuals have already been notified by the Health Department.

What can you do to protect unexposed children and adults from measles?

• If you or your child is behind on vaccines, please call 610-326-9460 to schedule a visit.
• If you have upcoming travel to an outbreak area or immunocompromised, please speak with your provider to discuss the best course of action.
• If you believe you or your child has been exposed to measles or have measle-type symptoms, please call us immediately at 610-326-9460. Please DO NOT come to the office without calling us first.

CHDC is committed to ensuring our patients stay health and support vaccines to protect against serious diseases.

Measles vaccination is highly protective against infection, and we recommend that all children receive 2 doses of the MMR vaccine - a first dose at 1 years old and a second dose at 4 years old.

To schedule an appointment, please call 610-326-9460 and a friendly member of our staff will assist you or you can speak with your provider by logging into the Patient Portal.
