Whooping-cough

Has the recent news about whooping cough left you worried?

Whooping cough cases are rising and babies who are too young to start their vaccinations are at greatest risk. Young babies with hooping cough are often very unwell and are likely to need hospital treatment as it can lead to pneumonia and brain damage.

At The Grange Medical Practice, we understand the critical role vaccinations play in safeguarding your child’s health. We offer a comprehensive range of childhood vaccinations including whooping cough vaccine, following the recommended schedule set by NHS.

Protecting Your Baby Even Before Birth:
