Private Vaccinations FAQ

Common questions about private vaccines.

Do I need to book ahead?

Pre-booking is the easiest way — book online or call your branch and we will have your vaccine prepared for you. Same-day appointments are available subject to stock with a £25 surcharge to cover urgent dispensing. Call your nearest branch first if you need same-day service so we can confirm availability.

How long will I be at the pharmacy?

Most private vaccine visits take 10–15 minutes including a brief consultation. We ask you to remain at the pharmacy for 15 minutes after the injection so we can monitor for any rare reactions.

Will my GP know I have been vaccinated?

With your permission, we send a summary of the vaccination to your GP so it appears on your NHS record. You will also receive a digital vaccination card you can show to travel clinics, schools, or employers.

What is the difference between NHS and private flu vaccines?

The NHS flu vaccine is free for eligible groups (65+, pregnant, clinical risk, frontline workers). Our private flu vaccine is available year-round to anyone aged 18+, with no eligibility requirements, for £20.

Is MMR ever available on the NHS?

Yes — children receive MMR free on the NHS as part of the routine schedule. Our £60 catch-up service is for adults who missed their childhood doses or are not sure of their vaccine status.

What is the schedule for Shingles vaccine?

The Shingrix vaccine is a single-dose course administered in one visit. Protection lasts at least 10 years. The NHS only offers shingles vaccine to those aged 70–79; we offer it privately from age 50 upward.
