In our more than 20 years of work, we have only refused vaccinations a few times. This happens rarely, but patients should know why. We act solely in the interests of the safety of children and adults.
Why a pediatrician may refuse vaccination
We refused to administer the vaccine that the patient brought with him from the pharmacy. And although it is legal, there are risks that we cannot ignore.
📦 Purchasing the vaccine yourself
Yes, you can buy the vaccine at a pharmacy. But you need to have a prescription, a thermal container, a receipt, a quality certificate, and instructions. In addition, the vaccine must be delivered to the medical facility within 2 hours.
❄️ The importance of the "cold chain"
Even with a thermal container, we cannot guarantee that the vaccine has been stored at the correct temperature at all times. Violation of the cold chain makes the vaccine unsafe and ineffective.
🚫 Why we don't administer unknown vaccines
Failure to comply with storage rules changes the properties of the drug. The ampoule may have the correct name, but inside it is a completely different quality. We never risk the health of patients.
✔️ How is vaccination carried out at "Mamyn Dim"?
🔍 Pediatrician's examination before vaccination
We always perform a physical examination of the child before vaccination (and do not charge extra for this). This ensures that only healthy patients are vaccinated.
💉 Vaccine quality and safety
We purchase drugs only from trusted manufacturers, control logistics, and are responsible for compliance with all storage conditions.
⏱️ Post-vaccination follow-up
After the vaccination, the patient is monitored for a while. We check their temperature, watch for reactions, and call the next day to make sure everything is okay.
The "Mother's House" polyclinic always acts in the interests of the patient, guided by the main principle of medicine: Noli nocere - do no harm.
