CHILDHOOD IMMUNISATIONS
The Importance of Immunisations
At Shifa Surgery Ltd, we provide childhood immunisations each week. Vaccination is the most important thing we can do to protect ourselves and our children against ill health. They prevent millions of deaths worldwide every year. Since vaccines were introduced in the UK, diseases like smallpox, polio and tetanus that used to kill or disable millions of people are either gone or are now very rarely seen. Measles and Mumps are starting to appear again in England, even though the MMR vaccine is the best protection against both diseases. This is serious as measles can lead to life-threatening complications like meningitis, and mumps can cause hearing loss.
We also offer 8 week baby checks with the Doctor and also offer post-natal check ups for all new mothers.
