#flu #vaccinate #december #2025campaign Flu numbers are surging! Get vaccinated to reduce the risk of complications, including hospitalization and even death. Reduce the spread of all viruses by covering coughs and sneezes with a tissue, washing your hands after coughing or sneezing, and wiping your nose. #itsjustallergies 🙄😑 ¡Los números de la gripe están aumentando! Vacúnese para reducir el riesgo de complicaciones, incluida la hospitalización e incluso la muerte. Reduce la propagación de todos los virus cubriendo la tos y los estornudos con un pañuelo, lavándote las manos después de toser o estornudar y limpiándote la nariz. 🙄😑

We are celebrating at Metropolitan ID - Dr. Vartivarian with his wife, Salpi, and Assistant Shirley Brownlow, who opened the doors to our practice 30 years ago on October 5, 2025, and we are all so grateful 🫶🍾

Happy #PAWeek2024 @mcastrocalzada! Let’s celebrate Physician Assistant/Associate Maria Castro Calzada as she looks forward to some remarkable milestones in 2025: commemorating 23 years working alongside Dr. Vartivarian at @metropolitan_id, achieving 25 years in medical practice, and celebrating her 50th birthday! Beyond devoting almost half of her life to treating Infectious Disease patients, PA Calzada has specialized in Hyperbaric Medicine and Surgical Wound Care. As a native Spanish-speaking practitioner, her expertise has expanded our team’s ability to care for patients we may not have reached otherwise. #pasdothat👩🏽‍⚕️ #pasgobeyond #PAandMDTeam
