Children's Vaccines at samedaydoctorTM
Specialist Paediatrician Appointments also available
samedaydoctorTM has joined forces with BabyJabs to form BabyJabs@samedaydoctor led by experienced GP Dr Richard Halvorsen who has published books and broadcast extensively on the subject of single vaccines. Please also see his website www.babyjabs.co.uk, and our travel vaccine page, for Single Measles and Rubella Vaccines.
Dr Richard Halvorsen has over 20 years' experience as an NHS GP and has developed a keen interest in childhood immunisations, talking and writing on the subject in the media. He started to offer Mercury Free Vaccines to his NHS patients before they became widely available. He also offered single Measles, Mumps and Rubella Vaccines as an alternative to MMR for many years. In response to parental demand, he launched BabyJabs, a children's immunisation service that offers parents a comprehensive choice of single and small combination vaccines, as free from additives as possible.
A consultation with Dr Halvorsen costs £90. Single Measles and Rubella vaccines are £95 each and blood tests for Measles and Rubella immunity is £75.
Antibody blood tests measure the child's immunity to certain diseases. They are a good guide as to whether the child is protected against the infections.
Single and Small Combination Baby Vaccines

We can help you plan a personalised immunsation service for your child.
Your baby’s health is of paramount importance, but while you want to make sure your little one is protected from diseases, many parents have serious doubts about MMR jabs.
With this in mind, samedaydoctorTM has teamed up with established single baby vaccinations service BabyJabs to offer parents a convenient way to protect their children against Measles, Rubella and other diseases without MMR vaccines.
How do these vaccinations differ from MMR jabs?
MMR vaccines are a three-in-one vaccination against Measles, Mumps and Rubella. However, serious doubts have been raised about the safety of MMR and many parents do not wish their children to have these vaccinations. The problem is that there is no alternative available on the NHS so parents are often forced to choose between having the MMR jabs or not having their child immunised at all.
At BabyJabs@samedaydoctorTM we offer a safe alternative to MMR jabs by providing single and small combination baby vaccinations, to allow parents to make an informed decision about their child’s vaccination programme.
Are single vaccinations safe?
Single and small combination vaccines are based on the child’s natural immunity and requirements rather than a general panacea, as is the case with MMR vaccines. This allows our doctors and the parents to make informed decisions about which vaccinations are required for each individual child, to make sure they only receive the immunisations they actually need.
To do this, we carry out blood tests to measure the child's immunity to certain diseases. These act as a good guide as to whether a child has any natural immunity to certain infections.
An expert in single and small combination vaccines
By choosing to have single and small combination vaccinations at samedaydoctorTM you can be sure your child is in safe hands. Our baby vaccination clinics are led by Dr Richard Halvorsen - founder of BabyJabs (www.BabyJabs.co.uk) and an experienced GP.
With over 20 years' experience as an NHS GP, Dr Halvorsen developed a keen interest in the area of baby vaccinations and parents concerns over such topics as MMR vaccines.
Having published books and broadcast extensively on the subject, he has been offering single vaccines for Measles, Mumps and Rubella as an alternative to MMR jabs for many years.
He has now brought this expertise to samedaydoctorTM clinics to allow parents to have convenient access to immunisations other than MMR that are as free from additives as possible.
Booking a consultation
Dr Halvorsen will give all details during a telephone consultation, which costs £100 on the telephone or £90 face to face.
We can then carry out blood tests for Measles and Rubella immunity (£75 each) to see if your child requires baby vaccinations against these diseases. If they do not have immunity we can then administer single Rubella and Measles vaccinations (£95 each), so that you can protect your child without having to resort to MMR vaccines.
BabyJabs@samedaydoctorTM allows parents to make a personalised plan for your child’s immunisation.
At samedaydoctorTM we offer a comprehensive range of single and small combination vaccinations for all children, from babies through to young men and women.
Our Specialist Paediatrician is also available for consultations.
