Every year in the United States, 33,700 women and men are diagnosed with cancer caused by HPV infection. The good news? The HPV vaccination can help prevent these diseases with a success rate as high as 90% in some cases.
“The age recommended for children to get their HPV vaccine has been getting younger and younger,” said SouthCoast Health Nurse Practitioner Carisa Elmore (pictured) “With its incredible success rate of preventing such awful diseases, it’s really a must for any child.”
Learn more about the HPV vaccine and how it affects your children here.
If you have any more questions about the HPV vaccine, schedule an appointment with an expert SouthCoast Health Pediatrician by calling us at 912-691-3600.

Though the first few weeks of a new year offer an excellent opportunity for a fresh start, the time is always right to make healthier choices for you and your family. If you’re looking to prioritize your kids’ overall health this year and in the years to come, pediatric concierge care may be the right choice for you. Here are just some of the many benefits you’ll enjoy as a member of Dr. Alexander’s practice.
Ease of Scheduling Appointments With other pediatric practices, parents have to call first thing in the morning in order to even attempt to make a same-day appointment. If they’re lucky enough to be seen that day, they’re often placed with a random provider who has never even met their child. At our practice, we take the stress out of scheduling and work around YOUR schedule, and you are guaranteed to see Sam (our amazing NP) or Dr. Alexander every visit!
Direct Access to Your Pediatrician Do you sometimes feel like you’ve spent half the day simply trying to get in touch with your doctor’s office? With our practice, you can text or call your pediatrician directly to ask questions and avoid unnecessary visits — saving you time and money! In typical practices, parents are told they must schedule an appointment for any concerns. With concierge pediatric care, you can send a photo or video of your child directly to Dr. Alexander through a HIPAA-compliant messaging system, and you’ll often be able to start treatment at home.
After-Hours Access to Dr. Alexander Sometimes you don’t notice that your child isn’t feeling well until you get home from work and the doctor’s office has already closed. No need to worry! You can text Dr. Alexander through the Spruce messaging app and hear back right away, helping to give you peace of mind. If you need to schedule a sick visit for the next day, you can do so online, day or night. By having after hours access, we can often keep you out of urgent cares or emergency rooms so that your child’s care is consistently with your PCP, improving quality of care and saving you money.
Increased Quality of Care Do you often feel rushed when you visit your child’s pediatrician, or that you spend the majority of your visit in the waiting room? At our practice, we don’t overbook our schedules. This allows patients to be seen as soon as they walk in for their appointment, removing any need for a waiting room at all! Even more importantly, this allows our team to spend ample time (usually 30 minutes to an hour) with each and every one of our patients, ensuring our patients and their parents leave our practice with all of their questions answered and concerns addressed.
These are just a few of the many benefits of joining Dr. Alexander’s concierge pediatric care practice! Not only will these services help save you valuable time and money, but they will also offer peace of mind that your child’s health is always in the best hands. If you’re interested in learning more about whether concierge pediatric care is right for your child, schedule a free consultation with Dr. Alexander to learn more about her practice and how it can benefit you.

First is the EGYM grand opening at the Effingham Y on 1/31, followed by the Islands Y on Whitemarsh Island 2/7, and the Liberty Y in Hinesville on 2/22.
What is interesting about EGYM is it provides a customized, full-body strength training workout in just 30 minutes, taking the guesswork out of strength training, and gives you a goal-specific training plan using a game-like interface.
That sounds like EGYM makes exercising more simple and efficient. We’re in!

Nearly all cases of cervical cancer — as well as other cancers including those of the vulva, vagina, penis, and anus — are caused by HPV.
But HPV is highly preventable.
Similar to vaccines for many other viruses, the vaccine for HPV renders the virus ineffective by training the immune system to produce antibodies that bind to it as soon as it enters your body.
Anyone between the ages of 9 to 45 can receive the HPV vaccine to protect against the cancer-causing virus. Though this may seem an uncomfortable topic for protective parents or guardians, including HPV vaccination as part of a 10-12 year-old’s regular health check-up can ensure they’re fully safeguarded well before they become sexually active.
Those who have already started having sex can also still benefit. “If you haven’t yet contracted the virus,” assures SouthCoast Health pediatrician, Dr. Blaine Crosland (pictured) “it’s never too late to shield against it.”
We understand that children are at their best when they are healthy, so we are here to help spread awareness and share health and wellness resources in our community!
All children in Savannah and surrounding communities, along with their parents, are invited to participate in this fun, interactive day filled with activities, entertainment, vendors, and more!
The first 150 children at the event will also receive a FREE T-shirt.
