The shingles vaccine is not recommended by the CDC for anyone younger than 60 because it has not yet been thoroughly studied in those age groups.

We have been to this ER more than 10 times due to an ongoing medical condition. It is hands down the best ER we have ever gone to. Every doctor we get is patient and caring and all try to gain understanding of what is going on. We have always left feeling taken care of and talking about how good they made an ER experience. Only complaint is sometimes the blood draw is rough.
