A vaccine is a product that stimulates your immune system to produce antibodies, exactly like it would if you were exposed to the disease. After getting vaccinated, you develop immunity to that disease, without having to get the disease first. This is what makes vaccines such powerful medicine. Unlike most medicines, which treat or cure diseases, vaccines prevent them.

We never turn anyone away due to a lack of insurance or inability to pay. If you don’t have health insurance, Neighborhood offers a Sliding Fee Discount Program and if eligible, your cost will be determined based on your income and household size. We can also help you apply for Medi-Cal and/or other assistance programs. If you are an uninsured or a self-pay patient, you have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost. For more information click here.
