Child Immunisation

It is important that your child immunisation programme is kept up to date, therefore we offer appointments with a Nurse.

Every Tuesday morning and Thursday afternoon is a baby vaccination clinic. 

The Nurses do not vaccinate your baby whilst they are on a short course of antibiotics or have a raised temperature. If you are concerned about this, you are welcome to ring the surgery on the day of your appointment, if you think that your child is unwell. 

The vaccinations are a minimum of 4 weeks apart. We do ask that you book the next vaccination straight after your appointment to avoid delay. 

Child vaccinations begin at 8 weeks. If you have any queries, regarding your child's vaccinations, please contact the Nurse.
