Incoming Residents/Fellows:
Incoming residents and fellows must have and document the immunizations set forth in Dr. Barbara Brandt's memo prior to their program start date.  You have the option of declining the Hep B vaccine.  If you decline, you must complete the Hepatitis B Vaccine Declination form and submit it directly to Boynton Health Services.  If you have not completed all immunization requirements prior to your start date, you must attain compliance as soon as possible with your primary care physician or clinic.  The University does not cover these costs.  Boynton Health Services will charge you for these services.
