H1N1 FLU INJECTION IS NOW AVAILABLE FOR POTOMAC PEDIATRICS
Potomac Pediatrics has received more of its H1N1 flu vaccine allocation. This allocation is separate from FIC Providers, LLC (the company that supplies seasonal flu vaccine in our office) and will only be offered to Potomac Pediatrics patients and their families.

- cardiovascular diseases
If you fall into one of these categories, then please come to our walk-in vaccine clinic from 8:30 am to 4:00 pm MONDAY thru FRIDAY. We will close from 1 pm to 2 pm for lunch.
To expedite the process, we ask that you pay with check or cash only. The cost of the vaccine administration is $20.
If you have a high risk condition and an egg allergy that requires the vaccine to be administered at the allergist’s office, please call our office so that we can make those arrangements.
