Both my nephew and niece had seizures w/in 12 hours of receiving a vaccination, and I am not willing to risk neurological damage with my baby. I have an alternative vaccine schedule I wish to discuss based upon my reasearch, and I am looking for a pediatrician in the NW Albq or Rio Rancho area that will work with me on this. Does anyone have an open-minded pediatrician that they recommend? Thanks!
Dr. Marianne Freedman at Southwest Medical Associates they are by Irving and Eagle Ranch Rd. ###-###-####. she has spread out my daughters vaccine schedule without me even having to ask.
Have you asked your pedi if they will do it? Cause you can tell them what you want. If they give your chilld a shot you don't want them to have, you can make a complait against them, and then make sure to tell people that, that pedi wont work with anyone. I dunno if you military or not with your family living so far away. But if you are, all you have to do is go into the shot clinic and tell them which shot you want. They will only give that shot. I did it with my son, when it came time for the mmr and acouple other ones. I did them one at a time. Good luck.
After Hours Pediatric clinic
They have a location in Rio Rancho
They are very open to working with what you think is best for you child.
Not in your area, but Bebe Han's office has always worked with our alternative schedule. You can also help your research and learn about other providers willing to work with you at the immunizations options class at

H.-- I see doctor David Allison at After Hours Pediatric. I'm also on a delayed schedule for my toddler's vaccines. He was open to it and is generally supportive of all our decisions. REally like him and trust him.
