About the Private Flu Vaccination Service.

Who is this service for?

The service is available to patients aged 6 months and above. Like all other private vaccination services, you will undergo a face-to-face consultation with a pharmacist to ensure it is clinically appropriate for you to receive a flu vaccine. If it is, your pharmacist will be able to administer the vaccine.

Why use this service?

If you do not qualify for a flu jab on the NHS but would like to have a vaccine, you can access private flu vaccination services at the pharmacy and protect yourself against the virus.

When will it be available?

We will begin offering the private flu vaccination service towards the end of September 2024 and will continue to do so throughout the flu season into early 2025.

We offer this private flu vaccination service directly from the pharmacy (Bucksburn Pharmacy & Health Clinic), located on Inverurie Road in Bucksburn, Aberdeen.
