FAQs

Private COVID-19 vaccination questions

How much is a private COVID-19 vaccine in Wigan and Chorley?

A private COVID-19 vaccination at Ready Health costs £79. The price includes your consultation with a registered clinician, the vaccine itself and a record of your vaccination. There are no hidden fees.

Where can I get a private COVID jab near me?

Ready Health is at 22 High Street, Standish, Wigan WN6 0HL, a short drive from Wigan, Chorley, Coppull, Shevington, Parbold, Orrell and the surrounding areas. You can book online or call 01257 676 001.

Who should get a private COVID-19 vaccine?

A private COVID-19 vaccine suits anyone who wants to top up their protection but is not eligible for a free NHS COVID-19 vaccine this season – for example working adults, parents, carers, people who live with or visit someone vulnerable, and travellers. If you are eligible for a free NHS vaccine, we will tell you at your consultation.

Am I eligible for a free NHS COVID-19 vaccine instead?

NHS eligibility is set each season and in recent years has been limited to groups such as older adults, care home residents and people with a weakened immune system. Check the NHS website or ask your GP or pharmacist. If you are not eligible, or prefer a private appointment, you can book with us.

How long after my last COVID-19 vaccine can I have another?

There is usually a minimum gap of around three months since your last COVID-19 vaccine dose. Tell us when you had your last dose and the clinician will confirm at your consultation that it is the right time for you.

I have recently had COVID-19. When can I be vaccinated?

You should wait until you have fully recovered before having your vaccine. Let us know when you tested positive or were unwell and the clinician will advise on the best timing for you.

Can I have the COVID-19 vaccine and the flu jab at the same time?

Yes. UK guidance supports giving the COVID-19 and flu vaccines at the same visit, usually one in each arm. Our flu vaccination is booked separately – please see our flu vaccination page or call us to arrange both together.

What are the common side effects?

Most side effects are mild and settle within a day or two: a sore arm, tiredness, headache, aching muscles, chills or a mild temperature. Serious allergic reactions are very rare, and our clinicians are trained to manage them. We ask you to wait briefly after your vaccination before you leave.

Are there any rare side effects I should know about?

Very rare cases of inflammation of the heart (myocarditis or pericarditis) have been reported after some COVID-19 vaccines, mostly in younger men and usually mild. Seek urgent medical help if you develop chest pain, shortness of breath or a pounding or fluttering heartbeat in the days after vaccination.

Can I have the COVID-19 vaccine if I am pregnant?

UK guidance considers COVID-19 vaccination suitable in pregnancy. Please tell us if you are pregnant or breastfeeding and the clinician will discuss it with you at your consultation.

How long does the appointment take?

Allow around 15 to 20 minutes. This covers a short health consultation, your vaccination and a brief rest afterwards before you leave.

Do you vaccinate children?

Online booking is for adults aged 18 and over. If you would like to vaccinate a younger family member, please call us on 01257 676 001 to discuss the options.

Is there parking at the clinic?

Ready Health is on Standish High Street with public parking nearby, and a short drive from junction 27 of the M6. The clinic is convenient for patients travelling from Wigan, Chorley and West Lancashire.
