Required dosages:

Immunisations are priced per dose. Some immunisations may require multiple doses. For immunisations administered by the nurse, the cost of the appointment will be deducted from the immunisation price. For immunisations administered by the doctor, the consultation fee applies in addition to the vaccine.

Prior to booking please contact the administration team via phone (for Members) or email (for Non-members) so that we can check stock. When booking online, please specify the vaccine you require in the ‘reason for appointment’.

With the exception of chickenpox, for children requesting vaccines outside of the national immunisation schedule, you will require a standard GP consultation.

Holding your child: It is the responsibility of the parent to restrain their child for their vaccination. If the nurse or doctor is unable to administer the vaccination in the allotted appointment time because the child was improperly restrained, the consultation will need to be re-booked and no-refund will apply.
