Dear Reader

​

Our stock of flu vaccinations have finally arrived!

We now have both government funded and private flu vaccines available for all ages.

Flu vaccination clinics are now running - please call 53182261 to book in.

Please note that due to the way these clinics are organised, these appointments are ONLY for flu and covid vaccinations - no other medical matters or other vaccinations are able to be addressed in these appointments.

Flu vaccines will only be administered during these dedicated vaccination clinics - not as part of or with other medical appointments.

These vaccination clinic appointments will be bulk billed (but please see below as there is a vaccine charge of $25 for any patient not eligible for a government funded flu vaccine).

The flu vaccine itself is funded by the Australian government for high risk patients in the following groups:

• people aged 65 years and over
• all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people aged 6 months and over
• all children aged 6 months to less than 5 years of age
• pregnant women (influenza vaccine can be given at any stage of pregnancy)
• individuals aged 5 years and over with SOME medical high risk conditions which will be discussed with you on the day to see if you are eligible

Flu vaccination is still recommended for all patients even if you are not eligible for a government funded flu vaccine - a $25 charge will apply.

Please call us on 53182261 to book your vaccination - we are available on the phone from 0900 - 1530.

Regards,

Dr Madhu Tamilarasan
