Private and Public Vaccination Appointments
We provide vaccination services for adults and children 5+ by appointment. Please speak to your local public health unit office for vaccination of small children and infants.
The National Advisory Committee on Immunization (NACI) informs our recommendations on Immunization. These NACI guidelines help us to provide timely, individualized recommendations. Please see the Canadian Immunization Guide Here.

VACCINATION PROCDURES
- BOOKING: Patients are asked to SELF-REGISTER. (link below)
- PRE-ARRIVAL: Self assess your health. If you are sick, please re-schedule by calling 250-383-6511.
- CHECK-IN: Please arrive 5 minutes early. Check in at the counter.
- BE PREPARED: Wear relaxed-fit short sleeves for vaccination appointments. Masks are optional for guests.

- EFFICACY: Vaccine is usually considered effective 1-2 weeks after the last dose in a series. It is still possible to catch or transmit an infectious disease during or after the vaccination period; however, partially vaccinated persons are significantly less susceptible than unvaccinated persons.
- RECORDS: We will keep a local record, and provide the ministry of health with a medication administration record. Once you've been immunized, BC residents can view their provincial record of immunization here.
