Vaccine and Immunization Price List (PDF)
The PPHD Immunization Services policy on administration of any vaccine is to follow current recommendations from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the vaccine manufacturer. This includes the yellow fever vaccine, which will NOT be administered to individuals who have increased risk of an adverse event, including children younger than 9 months or adults age 60 or older. For these individuals, medical evaluation and vaccine may be available at other providers. A doctor’s note will not qualify an individual for vaccine administration at the PPHD Immunization Clinic if the individual does not meet current CDC and manufacturer’s guidelines.

Vaccines for Adults
Vaccines are not just for children! It’s important for adults to also maintain immunity against certain diseases, such as tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis, measles, mumps, rubella, hepatitis A and B, influenza, and more. Even if you received these vaccines as a child, you may need a booster because some immunizations lose their effectiveness over tie. Talk to your healthcare provider about which vaccines may be recommended for you.
Vaccines for Travelers
A good way to protect yourself when traveling abroad is to check if certain immunizations are required or recommended. Call our Immunization Services to ensure inventory of vaccines before your appointment (626) 744-6121.
