2025 Flu Vaccinations
Now Available !
Vaccination Bookings
No, appointments are not mandatory for vaccinations at our pharmacy.
We welcome walk-ins, making it convenient for you to receive your vaccination without prior booking. There's no need to schedule online; simply visit our pharmacy during vaccination operating hours.
Upon arrival, you'll be required to fill out a brief paper form before receiving your vaccination.
While appointments are not mandatory for vaccinations at our pharmacy, we recommend booking in advance to ensure availability. It's important to note that booking ahead can guarantee availability, as walk-in appointments may be subject to availability based on demand.
As with all vaccination providers, the pharmacist is required to make a final assessment of your eligibility to receive any vaccination on the day of your appointment.
This will include completing the pre-screening process and gaining your consent to complete the vaccination service. In addition, as at other vaccination clinics, the pharmacist will request that you remain in the pharmacy for 15 minutes to monitor you for side effects from the vaccination. Finally, the pharmacist will upload the details of your vaccination to the Australian Immunisation Register.
If you miss your scheduled appointment for any reason, please reach out to us!
If you contact us within 24 hours of the missed appointment, our staff can try to reschedule your appointment over the phone, depending on availability.
Please contact us to cancel or reschedule either by emailing us at contact@stanmorestationpharmacy.com.au or call us at (02) 9569 4396.

Generally, receiving multiple vaccinations in the same arm shouldn't necessarily make it more painful or sore compared to receiving just one. However, individual pain tolerance and sensitivity can vary, so some people might experience more discomfort regardless.
It's always a good idea to communicate any concerns or discomfort with the pharmacist before or during the vaccination process. They can offer advice and support to help manage any discomfort you may experience.
