For the second consecutive year, Guthrie Binghamton Riverside Drive Pediatrics has received the Immunization Champion Award from the Broome County Health Department. The recognition highlights the practice’s commitment to improving childhood health in the region.
The award is given annually by the Broome County Health Department in collaboration with the Broome County Adult Immunization Coalition. It acknowledges local health care providers who demonstrate high vaccination rates among their patients.
Dr. Sean Holdridge and his team at Guthrie Binghamton Riverside Drive Pediatrics were honored with the “Best Childhood Immunization Rate Award” for reaching a 94 percent vaccination rate among their 2-year-old patients. This figure indicates that nearly all toddlers under their care are current on recommended immunizations by age two, which is important for both individual and public health.
“This means 94 percent of the practice’s toddlers are up to date on the complete series of recommended immunizations by their second birthday — a critical milestone for long-term health and community-wide disease prevention,” according to the announcement.
The continued achievement is attributed to Dr. Holdridge and his staff’s dedication to patient care and preventive medicine.
