Demystifying DTaP: What Every Parent Should Know
In this informative and approachable class, Dr. Franz unpacks the DTaP vaccine—what it is, what it’s for, and the important questions parents often have but don’t always get answered.
With decades of clinical experience and a passion for empowering families, Dr. Franz walks you through each component of the vaccine (diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis), how the immune system responds, and what to consider when making healthcare decisions for your child.
This class is not about telling you what to do—it’s about giving you the tools to think clearly, ask better questions, and feel confident in your choices.
