COVID vaccine prescription

This visit reviews your health history and vaccination records to confirm which COVID vaccine and dose you're eligible for, and provides the prescription or documentation needed to get vaccinated at a location convenient for you. This visit is entirely separate from the actual vaccination appointment itself.

No — this visit doesn't include the injection itself. You'll take the prescription or documentation provided and receive the actual vaccine at a pharmacy or other vaccination site near you, on your own schedule. This flexibility lets you choose whatever timing and location works best for your schedule.

Yes — your clinician reviews your age, health history, and prior vaccination status to recommend the appropriate vaccine and dose for you, and answers any questions you have about timing or eligibility. This ensures you're getting a vaccine and dose that's genuinely appropriate for your specific situation.

Most pharmacies and clinics can vaccinate the same day or within a few days of receiving your documentation, though exact availability depends on the specific location and time slot you choose to book. Booking early can help if you have a specific timeline in mind, such as upcoming travel.

Your clinician can walk you through expected vaccine side effects, like soreness or mild fatigue, and what to watch for afterward, though the actual vaccination itself happens at a separate pharmacy or clinic location. Bringing a list of any allergies or prior reactions can help this conversation go smoothly.
