Physician for Vaccination in Delhi — Adult Immunisation
Adult vaccination is an internal medicine job. Dr. Sanjay Sachdev (MBBS, MNAMS) plans and administers adult vaccines at C-58 Friends Colony East and Maharani Bagh Community Centre, Monday to Saturday 10:00 AM – 7:00 PM. Consultation ₹1,000, bundled into the vaccine quote when doses are given the same visit.
Physician-led adult immunisation in South Delhi — influenza and H1N1, pneumococcal, shingles, HPV, hepatitis A and B, typhoid, Td/Tdap, MMR, varicella, rabies and travel vaccines — with schedules adapted to diabetes, heart, lung, kidney and liver disease, immunosuppression and pregnancy.
Adult immunisation is not one list. Diabetes brings pneumococcal forward and adds hepatitis B. Steroids, biologics and chemotherapy exclude live vaccines and dictate timing around treatment. Asplenia needs pneumococcal, meningococcal and Hib. Dialysis needs double-dose hepatitis B with titre confirmation. Pregnancy allows influenza in any trimester and Tdap at 27–36 weeks. Getting that right is the clinical work; the injection is the easy part.
Chronic disease vaccine sets
Diabetes: influenza annually, pneumococcal from diagnosis, hepatitis B, shingles from 50.
Coronary disease and heart failure: influenza annually — it measurably reduces cardiac events — plus pneumococcal.
COPD and asthma: influenza and pneumococcal.
Chronic kidney disease or dialysis: hepatitis B double-dose with titres, influenza, pneumococcal.
Chronic liver disease: hepatitis A and B, influenza, pneumococcal.
Splenectomy or asplenia: pneumococcal, meningococcal, Hib, influenza.

How the appointment runs
Risk review first, then an itemised quote for the whole plan, injections at separate sites where several are due, 15 minutes of observation, and a written immunisation record with batch numbers and next-dose dates. Multi-dose courses are scheduled at the same visit so nothing lapses.
Travel, occupational and corporate vaccination
Travel schedules are built from your itinerary and dates, 4–6 weeks ahead where possible. Occupational cover includes rabies pre-exposure for veterinarians and animal handlers and hepatitis B for healthcare workers. Corporate on-site influenza drives are quoted per employee with a de-identified coverage report for HR.

Frequently asked
8 answers
Which physician should I see for vaccination in Delhi?+
An internal medicine physician handles adult immunisation. Dr. Sanjay Sachdev (MBBS, MNAMS) plans and gives adult vaccines at C-58 Friends Colony East and Maharani Bagh Community Centre, Monday to Saturday 10:00 AM – 7:00 PM by appointment — WhatsApp +91 98110 78388.
Do I need a physician if I only want a flu shot?+
For a healthy adult wanting one flu dose, the visit is short — a few risk questions, the injection, 15 minutes of observation and a record entry. The physician review matters more if you are diabetic, pregnant, over 65, immunosuppressed, or unsure which other vaccines are overdue.
What does a vaccination consultation cost?+
₹1,000, covering the risk review and a written personal immunisation schedule. When vaccines are given at the same visit, that review is bundled into the itemised vaccine quote instead of being charged separately.
Can a physician vaccinate someone on immunosuppressants or chemotherapy?+
Yes, with adjustments. Live vaccines (MMR, varicella, live zoster) are avoided; inactivated and recombinant vaccines are used and timed around treatment cycles — ideally two weeks before starting immunosuppression, or in the trough between chemotherapy cycles. Household contacts are vaccinated too, which is often the more effective protection.
Which vaccines does a physician recommend for adults with chronic disease?+
Diabetes: annual influenza, pneumococcal from diagnosis, hepatitis B, shingles from 50. Heart disease: annual influenza and pneumococcal. COPD or asthma: influenza and pneumococcal. Chronic kidney disease: hepatitis B (double-dose with titre check), influenza, pneumococcal. Chronic liver disease: hepatitis A and B, influenza, pneumococcal.
Can a physician handle a vaccine reaction?+
Yes — that is part of why this belongs in a clinic. You are observed for 15 minutes after each injection and emergency management of an allergic reaction is available on site. Most reactions are simply a sore arm, mild fever or fatigue for 24–48 hours.
Does the physician cover travel and occupational vaccines?+
Yes: hepatitis A and typhoid for most of South and South-East Asia and Africa, meningococcal ACWY (mandatory for Hajj and Umrah), rabies pre-exposure for animal handlers and long rural stays, Japanese encephalitis for endemic rural areas. Plan 4–6 weeks ahead so multi-dose courses finish before departure.
Can one visit cover the whole family?+
Yes. Parents' shingles and pneumococcal, an adult's overdue Td or hepatitis B, and a teenager's HPV course can all be done in a single appointment, with one written schedule for the household.
