I have managed to source a small number of for vaccines for private patients .

£25 each by appointment only

I wish I had enough for everyone that tried to book in the last couple of weeks when none were available to order.
Having written hundreds of vaccines off at our own over last few years , predicting volumes is really difficult .

Thanks for your continued loyalty in this regard

Please phone 01968660212 to make an appointment

For the avoidance of doubt.
Contrary to recent pronouncements in another country , there is no link between Autism and Paracetamol( tylenol) .

The scientific evidence behind this is as robust as any one might read .

Paracetamol when used appropriately is safe .

Read the instructions on packaging and on labels .

The “Don’t believe the experts “ mentality of some with high media profilea and in positions of influence is not only dangerous but needs called out by every individual.

Sadly medicines can have side effects , but the licensing process in UK and Europe , is robust enough to ensure these can be managed and predicted in the vast majority of cases.

Please do not stop taking prescribed medicines unless you have discussed with a qualified person .

Thanks
Martin

School holidays imminent .
If your young person has any medication in the school that they might need, please collect before the summer .

These are often inhalers , allergic emergency pens etc so always useful around home as well.

Also means they won’t be expired before start of term in August

Have a lovely break when it comes and thanks to all those involved in schools for their hard work throughout the school year

Thanks
