Measles cases are rising in London

Please make sure your child is up to date with their vaccinations and book an appointment at the surgery to catch up on missed doses. Two doses of the MMR vaccine can provide lifelong protection against measles.

Measles is more than just a rash. 1 in 5 children with measles will need hospital treatment. It can cause serious complications and in rare cases can be fatal. 

If you are unsure if you or your child are up to date with your vaccinations, please contact the practice.

Vaccinations

Flu and pneumonia vaccination

Each year a programme of influenza vaccination is carried out and it is strongly recommended that patients at greatest risk (i.e. over 65 years of age, diabetics, asthmatics and those with a history of heart disease) take advantage of this vaccination. Patients should contact the surgery every September to make an appointment.
