We offer both NHS-funded and private vaccinations at our Dedham pharmacy.
Destination-specific vaccinations administered at our in-house travel clinic, covering a wide range of routes and travel types.
If you do not qualify for the free NHS vaccine, our private flu jab is available throughout the autumn and winter season.
Protection against the human papillomavirus strains most commonly linked to cervical cancer and genital warts, available privately.
A two-dose private vaccine for children and adults who have not had chickenpox, reducing the risk of a potentially severe infection.

Dedham Pharmacy runs an established travel health clinic from the High Street in Dedham, serving Colchester and the surrounding Essex area.
We offer destination-specific vaccines, antimalarial prescriptions, yellow fever vaccinations with same-day certificates, and altitude sickness treatment, all assessed by our trained travel pharmacist.
Health risks vary widely across the region, from Japanese encephalitis in rural South East Asia to typhoid and rabies throughout the Indian subcontinent and beyond. Antimalarial cover may also be needed depending on your exact route.
Most of Europe carries low risk for UK travellers, but tick-borne encephalitis is a consideration for those visiting forested or rural areas in Central and Eastern Europe.
Yellow fever vaccination is compulsory for entry into several South American countries. Requirements vary by destination, so our pharmacist will confirm what is needed for your specific route.
Africa carries some of the most complex travel health requirements of any destination. Yellow fever, malaria prophylaxis, and meningitis vaccines are commonly required, with entry rules varying by country.
Canada and the USA carry minimal risk for most UK travellers, though those visiting rural areas of Mexico or Central America should consider typhoid and hepatitis A protection.
As an independent pharmacy, we have the flexibility to offer services that larger chains simply cannot, delivered personally by a team that knows its patients.
Nominate Dedham Pharmacy as your chosen dispenser and we will collect your repeat prescriptions directly from your GP surgery, including free home delivery to your door.
From blood pressure checks and flu jabs to the NHS Pharmacy Contraception Service, a number of NHS-funded services are available here without needing a GP appointment.
Our private services, from ear wax removal and B12 injections to travel vaccines and weight management, are available to book online or by calling the pharmacy directly.
Our pharmacist is available in store throughout opening hours for advice on medication, symptoms, over-the-counter treatments, and whether a GP referral is genuinely needed.

Great having a pharmacy that is open late and during weekends. Quick and efficient, great service.
I see they were also offering a flu jab service, if that’s something you need.

Very helpful pre-visit information and questions answered, all on email, thank you. Lovely location in Dedham and handy, nearby, free parking. Not sure about buses as it’s a rural location. Level access in the pharmacy itself and we were seen promptly. Friendly service. A mix up on cost which was eventually sorted loses it one star.
