Mariner's pharmacists can provide flu shot and other immunizations including Hepatitis A and B, Pneumonia, Shingles, Tetanus and more. Our specially trained pharmacists who have completed an extensive education program will administer the immunizations. The Centers for Disease Control is recommending that everyone over the age of 6 months get vaccinated this year with the flu vaccine. Certain vaccinations may not be available at the time of walk-in but certainly would be available if pre-order.
