HPV Clinics open over Christmas

Over the Christmas and new year period Wandsworth NHS is running drop-in clinics for teenage aged 13 to 18 years old to catch up with their HPV jab. This vaccine will protect them against a future risk of cervical cancer, and the clinics will run until 13th January.

I've already made representations to the NHS that they should be providing a clinic in the Putney area - all three are in the south and east of the borough when it would make a lot of sense for Queen Mary's Hospital and Tudor Lodge Centre in Victoria Drive to be bases for these clinics. However, the three bases over the Christmas period will be:

St Christopher?s Clinic, Battersea
Wheeler Court, Plough Road SW11 2AX
TUESDAYS 12noon to 4pm and WEDNESDAYS 9.30am to 12.30pm

Doddington Clinic, Battersea
311 Battersea Park Road Battersea SW11 4LU
MONDAYS 1.30 to 4.30pm and THURSDAYS 1.30 to 4.30pm

Tooting Bec Medical Centre
103 Macmillan Way Tooting SW17 6AT (off Franciscan Road opposite Tooting Bec Common) SATURDAYS 9am to 12pm
