How the MMR Vaccine Service Works
Fulham Palace Pharmacy follows NHS guidance to deliver safe effective immunisation. Our pharmacists check your vaccine history before each appointment.
You arrive at our Fulham Bridge Road branch. A trained pharmacist reviews your medical history and confirms you meet eligibility criteria. They explain the procedure and possible mild side effects.
We administer a single injection into your upper arm muscle. You rest for ten minutes under observation to monitor any immediate reaction. We record the vaccination on your NHS record and issue a digital patient card. Two doses, given at least four weeks apart, offer best protection against measles mumps and rubella.
Why You Need the MMR Vaccine
The combined MMR vaccine guards you against three highly infectious diseases. Measles can cause pneumonia or brain inflammation. Mumps may lead to meningitis or hearing loss. Rubella can harm unborn babies.
- Reduces risk of serious complications
- Helps protect those who cannot immunise

The MMR vaccine protects you against measles mumps and rubella. All three diseases spread easily and can lead to serious problems such as meningitis hearing loss and complications in pregnancy. Two doses give you long term immunity and help protect vulnerable people who cannot be vaccinated.
Anyone in Fulham Battersea Putney Hammersmith or Chelsea who missed childhood doses or needs a catch up can book our service. We follow NHS eligibility guidelines to ensure safety. Speak to our pharmacist if you have a weakened immune system are pregnant or are unsure about your vaccination history.
You need two doses for best protection. The first dose can be given from age one. The second dose follows at least four weeks later. We’ll remind you when to book your second visit. These timings match NHS recommendations to maximise your immunity.
Most people experience no more than mild reactions. You might have soreness at the injection site a low grade fever or a mild rash. Serious reactions are very rare. Our pharmacist monitors you for ten minutes after vaccination to ensure your safety.
You should avoid the MMR vaccine during pregnancy as it contains weakened viruses. If you plan pregnancy you can have it before you conceive. Speak to our pharmacist for tailored timing advice and safe planning.
