Private Vaccinations in Manchester & Cheshire
From baby’s first jabs to essential protection for your next adventure abroad, keeping your family’s immunisations up-to-date is one of the most important steps you can take for their health. It offers peace of mind, knowing your children are protected as they head off to nursery or school, and that your whole family is prepared for the season ahead or safe travels.
We understand that the UK immunisation schedule and travel requirements can sometimes feel overwhelming, but we are here to make it simple. Here at our clinic in Hale, Dr Natalie Summerhill provides a complete and personal vaccination service for patients across Manchester and Cheshire.
We believe that preventative healthcare should be a simple, reassuring experience. That’s why we take the time to understand your family’s medical history, lifestyle and travel plans. Our service covers everything from the routine childhood immunisation schedule and teenage boosters to annual flu jabs and specific vaccines needed for travel, all delivered with a friendly and supportive approach.
Whether you’re ensuring your little one is ready for school, preparing for a trip, or simply staying on top of your own health, we provide clear advice and expert medical care in a calm and comfortable environment.
Why Are Vaccinations So Important?
Vaccinations are a safe and effective way of protecting your family against serious diseases. They work by preparing your body’s immune system to fight off future infections, preventing illnesses that can cause severe health problems. Keeping immunisations current is a cornerstone of family health.
Staying up-to-date with your jabs is especially important for:
- Children: The routine immunisation schedule gives little ones vital protection against common childhood illnesses right from the start.
- Teenagers: Boosters like the 3-in-1 vaccine are offered to maintain immunity against diseases such as tetanus, diphtheria, and polio.
- Travellers: Before you jet off, it’s wise to get vaccinated against diseases that are more common in other parts of the world, especially if it has been over 10 years since your last booster.
- Adults: Certain vaccines, like those for flu and shingles, are recommended for specific age groups or for individuals with particular health conditions to ensure ongoing protection.
Book a consultation.
New patients seeking longer-term health advice must book an initial consultation. This isn’t required for single-issue GP appointments, blood tests or contraception services.
Highly recommended clinic.

Dr Natalie Summerhill was very professional and skilled. She goes one step further and deeply cares about her patients.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who should have these vaccines?
Our vaccines are for both adults and children. The right ones for you will depend on your age, health, job, and travel plans. Dr Summerhill will help create a personal plan for you and your family.
Do I need a GP referral?
No referral is needed, but a consultation with Dr Summerhill is required so we can understand your needs and make sure the vaccine is suitable for you.
How many doses will I need?
It varies. Some vaccines, like a tetanus booster, are just a single jab. Others, such as HPV or Hepatitis B, need a course of two or three injections for full, lasting protection.
What are the common side effects?
Most side effects are very mild and don’t last long. You might notice a bit of soreness or redness where you had the injection, or feel slightly under the weather with a headache or mild temperature. Serious reactions are extremely rare.
Should I postpone my jab if I feel unwell?
Yes, if you have a fever or feel too poorly to go about your day, it’s best to wait until you’re feeling better before having your vaccination.
How do I know which travel vaccines I need?
This depends on where you’re going, for how long, and what you’ll be doing. We recommend getting advice for travel to parts of Africa, Asia, and Eastern Europe, or if you’ll be somewhere with limited medical facilities.
What is the HPV vaccine you offer?
We offer Gardasil 9, which protects against the human papillomavirus (HPV). It’s suitable for both males and females and can be given from age 9 all the way up to 45.
