Shipments of the flu mist vaccine are currently delayed by the manufacturer.  At present it is estimated that we may receive additional supply by the end of November.  The flu shot is available and recommended as an alternative.  AAP News Article

Our office has received a limited supply of the flu mist, which was offered on a first come first served basis.  We will do our best to honor those patients who are currently booked for the flu mist.  Thank you for your understanding.

Flu is a virus that can cause serious health problems for otherwise healthy kids. Immunization reduces the risk of serious problems and protects other vulnerable family members.

While a retail-based pharmacy that gives flu shots may seem like an attractive alternative for busy families, there are definite advantages to immunizing your child at your pediatrician’s office. 

Flu vaccines are now available at Lake Forest Pediatric Associates in both forms – flu mist and flu shots. Flu vaccination appointments can be scheduled by calling 847-295-1220.

Dear Parents, Patients, Family and Friends:

I will be retiring from Lake Forest Pediatrics and from the active practice of Pediatrics on June 30, 2013.

Confucius said “Choose a job you love and you will never have to work a day in your life.” I have been fortunate to have a career which I truly loved. However, I feel this is the right time to explore new horizons.

I have been blessed to have been at Lake Forest Pediatrics for 43 years. During that time, I ahve been grateful you have allowed me into the lives of your families and the privilege of caring for your most valuable possession — your children. I hope that I have contributed to their well-being during my career. I know your children have enriched my life and they have taught me many of my life experiences.

I am leaving the practice of pediatrics — a lot older, a little wiser, and still in awe of the magnificence of children.

I would like to wish all of you the gift of health, happiness and well-being.

With my best regards,
Arthur J. Lasin, M.D.
