Flu Shot Manly: Protect Yourself This Flu Season with Your Local GP
As flu season arrives in Manly, now is the ideal time to organise your annual flu vaccination. Influenza can lead to serious illness, time off work, and complications, especially for young children, older adults, and those with underlying health conditions.
At South Steyne Medical Centre, we offer safe, convenient, and personalised flu vaccinations delivered by experienced GPs and practice nurses – right here in the heart of Manly.
At South Steyne Medical Centre, private flu vaccinations are available for $25. Government-funded flu vaccines are available for eligible patients, including children under 5 years of age and adults aged 65 years and over. Children aged 2 to 4 years may also be eligible for the new FluMistยฎ nasal flu vaccine, which is administered as a gentle nasal spray rather than an injection.
Regular patients of the clinic may be able to book directly with the nurse for their flu vaccination, with the nursing team arranging the required treatment room request with the doctor. New patients to the clinic will generally require an appointment with a GP prior to vaccination.
