Information on Vaccination and Testing
.png){kind=icon}
As every year, the Karlín Clinic recommends flu vaccination to patients of all ages. Especially seniors and chronically ill patients, their relatives and friends who are in contact with them, and people in exposed occupations.
You can come in for a flu shot without an appointment. The vaccine is covered for people 65 years of age and older and some chronically ill people. The price for self-payers is 600,- CZK. Check your insurance company's contribution.
For vaccination against Covid it is necessary to make an appointment with the nurse in advance. Both vaccines can be given on the same day.
We also recommend vaccination against pneumococcal infections, which can cause very serious pneumonia in the elderly and chronically ill. For citizens aged 65 and over, their insurance company pays for their vaccine.
Please consider our recommendation to vaccinate to prevent complications in the 2023/2024 flu season.

Communication with the surgery |
Dear patients, please do not send us emails, they overload our email inbox and we do not have the capacity for its daily maintenance. Only use the SmartMedix system to communicate with the practice. We would like this communication system to replace the phone, which is constantly overloaded, despite the fact that we have included an operator in our team. |
