Services

• Tetanus: If you have received five doses in your lifetime you will no longer receive routine boosters. However, if you suffer a tetanus-prone injury, or will be travelling to a country where a tetanus shot would be required, you will be offered a booster dose.
• Diphtheria: Anyone born before 1979 will not have full diphtheria immunity, which, as with tetanus, is five doses. This will be offered if you are travelling abroad.
• Influenza/Pneumonia: We offer these vaccinations to all our patients who fall into the relevant age category or those at particular risk from heart, chest, diabetic and medical conditions. The vaccination targets "killer" strains of 'flu' which have caused epidemics in this country over the last few years.
