Please can anyone help regarding the booster jab. Earlier in the year for both Covid jabs we recieved a SMS I have not received any SMS at all regarding the booster. I am a patient of Vera health centre. Do I assume that we make an appointment as per normal on all other health matters. Thanks for any advice.

Yes, go and see the receptionists and ask for cita vaccuna. Take your health card. I got my appointment for the next day.

That information is very interesting to  me as i am hoping to change my health centre to Vera at the end of January but although i speak passable Spanish i am extremely deaf so cannot understand what people are saying through their masks.  Does anyone know whether there are any doctors who speak at least a smattering of English and what their names are so that i can request being put on their panel.  I am on the padron with Vera so hopefully will be accepted.  Neither myself nor my husband  have yet been given a booster from our existing surgery.

Unfortunately Dra Angela is no longer there. I had an appointment today and saw a Dr Bouzid.
