Important Note: Travel vaccines are not covered by Medicare and are charged privately. Please book your travel vaccination appointment at least six weeks prior to departure, as some vaccines require multiple doses or take time to become fully effective.

When it comes to vaccinations, quality, safety, and accuracy matter. Here’s why more Sydney residents trust us for their immunisation needs:
The rigorous processes involved in ensuring vaccine safety and effectiveness are overseen by the Global Advisory Committee on Vaccine Safety, which focuses on assessing and ensuring the safety of vaccines and related medicinal products.
Our clinic follows strict cold chain protocols, ensuring vaccines are stored at correct temperatures at all times. We are fully accredited under Australian Standards and regularly audited to maintain compliance.
The vaccines approved for use in Australia undergo rigorous processes to ensure their safety and effectiveness, including clinical trials and oversight by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA).
Our doctors and nurses are experienced in administering vaccines to patients of all ages, including children and those with needle anxiety. We provide a calm, supportive environment and offer clear aftercare advice.
When vaccinated, the immune system responds by preparing the body for future infections, enhancing its ability to defend against diseases without causing illness.
Travelling to Africa or South America? We are an approved provider of Yellow Fever vaccinations, a requirement for entry into several countries. You’ll also receive an International Certificate of Vaccination, recognised worldwide.
Vaccination trains the body to create immune responses as if it were exposed to a disease, thereby enhancing the immune system’s ability to react quickly and effectively to future infections.
Located in Sydney CBD, our clinic is easily accessible via public transport. We offer same-day appointments for most immunisation services and convenient online booking.
For parents seeking vaccination services, please contact your local Public Health Unit or the Australian Immunisation Register to obtain relevant immunisation records and information.
When you visit Sydney Premier Medical & Health Centre for a vaccination, here’s what you can expect:
Q: Are immunisations safe?A: Yes. All vaccines used in Australia are rigorously tested for safety and effectiveness. Side effects are usually mild and temporary.
Q: Do I need a GP consultation before a vaccine?A: In most cases, yes. Your doctor will assess your health status and ensure the vaccine is appropriate. This is especially important for travel, COVID-19, and catch-up vaccinations. It’s important to talk to your healthcare professional about vaccination options, especially if you have concerns about minor illnesses.
Q: Can I get a record of all my vaccinations?A: Absolutely. We maintain detailed immunisation records and can provide printouts for work, school, or travel purposes. We also ensure your doses are registered with the Australian Immunisation Register (AIR).
Q: How much do vaccines cost?A: Some vaccines are subsidised under Medicare (e.g., childhood and flu vaccines for eligible patients), while others—especially travel vaccines—are privately billed. Please ask our reception for current pricing when booking.
Q: What if I have a needle phobia?A: You’re not alone. Our team is trained in calming techniques and can provide distraction tools or topical anaesthetics to help ease your anxiety.
Q: How much does a tetanus shot cost?A: Vaccines are paid for upfront, before you see the doctor, and the consultation is charged at our usual fees. A standard consultation is $95.00, or $49.95 after the $45.05 Medicare rebate. Reception can confirm the current vaccine price when you book.
Q: Do I need an appointment for a tetanus shot?A: Booking is recommended, online or on 02 8964 8677, and same-day appointments are available for most immunisation services. If you arrive without an appointment and want to be seen straight away, private fees apply, even if you are an existing patient.
Q: Can I get a tetanus vaccination for work?A: Yes. Tetanus is one of the occupational vaccinations we provide for people working in healthcare, childcare, aged care, construction and other higher-risk industries. We can provide vaccination records and documentation for your employer, and your dose is recorded on the Australian Immunisation Register.
