Measles: Are You Protected?

You need 2 doses of MMR for lifelong protection.

If you haven’t had both doses, you could be at risk.

Contact your GP and book an appointment if you’re not up to date.

In December 2023, 5604 patients attended their appointment.

However, 128 patients did not attend.

This is equal to 32 hours of clinical time.

If you are unable to attend, please remember to cancel your appointment:

Cancelling your appointment means we can offer it to someone else.

	On the day	Emergency appointments are for patients who have an urgent medical problem that cannot wait for a routine appointment.
	Within 48 hours	For patients who need to be seen soon but do not require an emergency appointment, we offer appointments within a 48 hour period.
	Routine	For patients who need an appointment for a non-urgent problem.
	Video call	For patients who require an appointment to see a GP without the waiting room. The Livi App makes it easier to get the help you need. Patients will see an NHS trained GP by video from a convenient place, at a time that suits you. Find out more about booking an online GP appointment.
