Going private for 1yo vaccinations...

Hi all,

Since DS had severe eczema following his earlier vaccinations (8, 12 and 16 week vaccinations) we have been advised to space out his future vaccinations. He's now up for his 1 yo vaccinations which include the Hib/Men C booster, MMR and PCV. Giving them separately would mean 6 jabs.
Has anyone gone privately for these vaccinations? If yes, where would you recommend we go?
We've been adviced to leave a gap of 3-4 weeks between each jab..

TIA :)

do you want to move this to the allergy section of mumsnet?
you might get some more helpful experienced replies from other allergy parents.

I have never heard of vaccinations causing eczema, but saying that our son has egg allergy and has had flu jabs ordered from gp for him that are egg free.
MMR for those with egg allergy history if referred to an allergy clinic may have them given in a hospital setting just in case.

Who has advised this? If it is a paediatrician then I would have thought you should be able to get it on the NHS
