Placement Immunisation Clinic
All vaccinations require an initial doctor's appointment. You may require a serology test before getting any vaccines - your doctor will order a blood test for you, and you will need to make a follow up appointment.
All vaccines will incur a fee that is payable on the day. If you are an international student, reception will give you an invoice to claim back with your insurance. Please check with your insurance company if your policy covers vaccinations.
Unfortunately, forms for placement - including Vaccine Preventable Diseases (VPD) forms - are not an emergency, nor considered an urgent appointment for our doctors.
If you require your form, or initial serology to be completed before a specific date, and we do not have any appointments available within your timeframe, you will need to look for another doctor in your area. All Australian doctors are able to complete VPD forms. Find a local GP in your area via Find a GP (General Practitioner) | HealthShare
Required forms
Please print the Vaccine Preventable Diseases Evidence Certification Form (VPD form) and bring with you to your doctor's appointment.

Previous Vaccinations / Medical History
If you have any medical records, including proof of vaccines, we strongly encourage you to bring these to your appointment. You can request a copy of your records from your previous clinic.
Follow Up Doses of Vaccines
If your doctor has already ordered you a series of vaccines (Hep B, MMR, etc.,) and you need to get your second or third dose, you do not need an appointment with your doctor - you are welcome to see our practice nurses between 8.30am-12pm and 1pm-4pm Monday to Friday. We may ask you to come back at another time depending on availability.
If you are unsure about when your next dose is due, or if you are unsure if you need another dose, call the clinic on 3138 3161 and ask to speak to the nurse, or feel free to come in and speak to a nurse in person.
Mask Fit Testing
All students are required to have respiratory mask fit testing prior to attending placement in a hospital or any QLD Health facility.
Please refer to QUT Medical Centre - Mask Fit Testing for more information on booking an appointment.
