COVID UPDATE
Despite the pandemic, Yum Pediatrics remains committed to maintaining well visits so that we can keep immunizations up-to-date and address any concerns parents have. We are doing our best to keep the office sanitized and we are constantly updating our procedures so that we can keep our patients safe. For now we will ask that only one parent attend a visit with their child and that all patients over age 2 years and family members continue to wear masks in the office. We strongly encourage our patients over age 5 to get the COVID-19 shots and if you have concerns we are happy to discuss them during a scheduled visit.
*We are accepting a limited number of new patients. However, at this time our panel of Tricare, Medicaid and United Healthcare patients is full.*
For families who are looking for ideas for cooking and keeping their kids busy while staying at home, check out the Dr. Yum Project’s website for free webinars, virtual classes, Facebook Lives and Youtube Videos on
