Dr. Sanjay Sachdev (MBBS, MNAMS, internal medicine) reviews and administers adult vaccines at C-58 Friends Colony East and Maharani Bagh Community Centre, Monday to Saturday 10:00 AM – 7:00 PM by appointment. Consultation ₹1,000, bundled into the vaccine quote when doses are given the same visit.
A physician-led vaccination visit rather than an over-the-counter injection: your chronic conditions, medicines, allergies, past doses and travel plans decide the list, you are observed after each injection, and you leave with a dated written schedule for the remaining doses.
Deciding correctly. Diabetes means pneumococcal from diagnosis rather than at 65 and hepatitis B as well. Steroids, biologics or chemotherapy rule live vaccines out and change timing around treatment cycles. Splenectomy needs the fullest cover. Pregnancy allows flu in any trimester and Tdap at 27–36 weeks but excludes MMR and varicella. Dialysis needs a double-dose hepatitis B schedule with titre checks. None of that is decided at a counter.
Vaccines given at the clinic
Influenza (quadrivalent, includes H1N1 swine flu) · pneumococcal PCV and PPSV23 · recombinant shingles · HPV 9-valent and quadrivalent · hepatitis A · hepatitis B · typhoid conjugate · Td and Tdap · MMR · varicella · rabies pre- and post-exposure · meningococcal ACWY for Hajj, Umrah and travel.
How the visit runs
Short consultation, itemised quote for the whole plan, injections at separate sites where several are due, 15 minutes of observation, then a written immunisation record with batch numbers and next-dose dates. Nothing is given before you have seen the cost of the full course.
Catch-up and lost records
Missing childhood records are the norm in adults. Either a full catch-up schedule assuming no immunity, or titre testing where it is cheaper and clinically meaningful — hepatitis B surface antibody, measles IgG, varicella IgG. Either way you end up with one document that covers the household.
Urgent vaccination after exposure
After an animal bite or scratch, post-exposure rabies vaccination (with immunoglobulin where indicated) is time-critical — call +91 98110 78388 immediately rather than booking online. Tetanus cover is reviewed at the same time for any dirty or deep wound.

Frequently asked
8 answers
Which doctor gives vaccines to adults?+
An internal medicine physician or general physician. Dr. Sanjay Sachdev (MBBS, MNAMS, internal medicine) reviews your age, chronic conditions, medicines, allergies and travel plans, then gives the vaccines himself and writes a dated schedule for any remaining doses.
Why see a doctor for vaccination instead of a chemist or camp?+
Because the decision matters more than the injection. Diabetes, steroids, biologics, chemotherapy, pregnancy, splenectomy, kidney or liver disease, past reactions and missing childhood records all change which vaccines you need, in what order, and whether titres should be checked first. A physician also manages any reaction on the spot.
Where is the nearest doctor for vaccination in South Delhi?+
C-58 Friends Colony East (nearest for Friends Colony, New Friends Colony, Sukhdev Vihar, Okhla, Jasola) and Maharani Bagh Community Centre (nearest for Maharani Bagh, Nizamuddin, Jangpura, Defence Colony, Lajpat Nagar, Greater Kailash). Monday to Saturday, 10:00 AM – 7:00 PM by appointment — WhatsApp +91 98110 78388.
What does the consultation cost?+
₹1,000 for a consultation, which covers the risk review and a written personal immunisation schedule. When vaccines are given at the same visit, the review is bundled into the itemised vaccine quote rather than charged twice.
Can a doctor rebuild my schedule if I lost my childhood records?+
Yes — this is routine in adults. Where records are missing we either assume no protection and give a catch-up schedule, or test titres where that is cheaper and clinically useful (hepatitis B surface antibody, measles IgG, varicella IgG). You leave with a written record you can keep and reuse.
Can the doctor vaccinate my elderly parents at home?+
For housebound elderly patients in Friends Colony, New Friends Colony, Maharani Bagh, Defence Colony and Nizamuddin, home visits for influenza and pneumococcal can be arranged after a consultation. Vaccines needing longer post-injection observation are preferred at the clinic.
Which vaccines can the doctor give in one visit?+
Inactivated vaccines can be combined at separate injection sites — flu with pneumococcal, Td/Tdap with hepatitis B, and so on. Live vaccines (MMR, varicella) are either given together or four weeks apart. The schedule is built to minimise the number of visits.
What should I bring?+
Any vaccination records you have, a list of current medicines (especially steroids, biologics or chemotherapy), details of allergies and past vaccine reactions, and travel dates if the visit is for travel vaccines. If you have none of these, come anyway — a catch-up plan can be built from scratch.
