Q: How do I know if I am eligible for a free NHS flu or COVID-19 vaccination?

Eligibility is set nationally by the NHS and reviewed every season. The quickest way to check is the NHS vaccination booking service, which will tell you what you qualify for. You can also call Buckfastleigh Pharmacy on 01364 642325 and we will talk it through with you.

Q: Do you offer NHS RSV vaccinations?

No, Buckfastleigh Pharmacy does not currently offer NHS RSV vaccinations. If you are eligible, please contact your GP surgery or check the NHS website for local availability.

We provide NHS flu and COVID-19 vaccinations to everyone who is eligible, and private flu and COVID-19 jabs for those who are not. Both are given by our pharmacist in our private consultation room on Fore Street.

If you qualify for an NHS vaccination it is free of charge, and you book it through the national NHS service. If you are not eligible, you can still be vaccinated here privately.

How do I know if I am eligible for a free NHS vaccination?

Eligibility is set nationally by the NHS and is reviewed every season. The quickest way to check is the NHS vaccination booking service, which will tell you what you qualify for. You are also very welcome to call us on 01364 642325 and we will talk it through with you.

Can I book a private jab online?

Not at the moment. Private flu and COVID-19 vaccinations are booked by telephone only, so that we can confirm stock and check the appointment is suitable for you before you come in. Call us on 01364 642325.

Can I have both jabs at the same appointment?

Often yes, depending on what you are eligible for and what we have available. Mention it when you book and we will arrange the appointment accordingly.

Do you offer NHS RSV vaccinations?

No, we do not currently offer NHS RSV vaccinations. If you are eligible, please contact your GP surgery or check the NHS website for local availability.

What if you have no appointments left?

During the busiest weeks we do sell out of both appointments and stock. Our sister branches in Ashburton and Chudleigh run the same services, so it is always worth calling them — and it is worth calling us again later in the season, as more stock arrives.
