Vaccines are not just for children. Adult immunity wanes, and adults face vaccine-preventable diseases that cause serious illness — influenza, pneumonia, hepatitis, cervical cancer and shingles among them.
We review your vaccination status during consultations and build a simple, evidence-based adult immunisation schedule, with proper records maintained at the clinic.
Vaccines for adults
- Annual influenza (flu) vaccine
- Pneumococcal vaccine — for over-65s and high-risk adults
- Hepatitis B — 3-dose series
- Tetanus-diphtheria (Td) booster — every 10 years
- HPV vaccine — for young adults and women
- Shingles (herpes zoster) vaccine — for over-50s
- Travel vaccines — typhoid, hepatitis A, yellow fever, Japanese encephalitis
Who should prioritise vaccination
- Adults over 50 and the elderly
- People with diabetes, heart or lung disease
- Pregnant women (as per schedule)
- Frequent travellers
- Healthcare workers and teachers
