The Power of Provider Recommendations
The Center for Disease Control (CDC) has published guidelines
on recommended immunization schedules by age group, but for many

medical knowledge, clinicians are in a unique position to educate
patients about health decisions, including vaccinations, and research
shows that patients value the advice.
