Baby and Childhood Immunisations

The practice nurses provide these by appointment. Please ask if unsure when immunisations are due or have any queries. We would advise children to be immunised unless there are medical reasons for not doing so.

Children's Development Clinic & under 5’s

Development checks are due at about 6 weeks and 8 months. These are by appointment with the doctor on Tuesdays 2.00pm - 3.00pm. A further check is due at 3 years and these are by appointment with our Health Visitors,  The number for queries is 020 7326 5316.

Our Health Visitor is also available, without appointment, to give advice about feeding, weighing, immunisations and general matters each Tuesday 1.30-3.15 pm.

Travel Vaccinations

The practice nurses provide information about travel vaccinations. Please arrange these with us in good time. A minimum 6 weeks before departure is advised. The surgery is a Yellow Fever vaccination centre. 

There is further information about countries and vaccinations required on the links below

Europe & Russia	North America
Central America	South America
Caribbean	Africa
Middle East	Central Asia
East Asia	Australasia and Pacific

It is important to make this initial appointment as early as possible - at least 6 weeks before you travel - as a second appointment will be required with the practice nurse to actually receive the vaccinations. These vaccines have to be ordered as they are not a stock vaccine. Your second appointment needs to be at least 2 weeks before you travel to allow the vaccines to work.

Some travel vaccines are ordered on a private prescription and these incur a charge over and above the normal prescription charge. This is because not all travel vaccinations are included in the services provided by the NHS.
