Vaccines are the most effective way to prevent many infectious diseases; the practice provides several different vaccination services.
Flu Vaccination
The practice policy is to offer the influenza vaccination to all patients over the age of 65 years and those patients suffering from certain conditions.
If you fall into this category we will contact you by letter or phone each year around the end of September to the beginning of October with an invitation to attend.
Childhood Vaccinations
We offer a full immunisation service for children.
If your child has missed a vaccination, please give us a ring to book an appointment with the practice nurse.
Travel Advice and Vaccinations
We offer many travel vaccinations, as do our local pharmacies. Our nursing staff are always happy to advice on the requirements for your trip. They will also advise on malaria prevention, and other health issues which may be relevant to your journey.
Some vaccinations will require boosters before you travel, so please always consult the nurse at the earliest opportunity after you have planned your journey. We recommend that you book your appointment at least four weeks before you travel.
We are no longer a Yellow Fever Center.
- Please note that many travel vaccinations are not NHS services and therefore attract a fee.
