🩺 Get Your Flu + COVID-19 Vaccines Together at CityMed Pharmacy

Protect Yourself This Fall — Starting October 14, 2025


🧡 Why Getting Vaccinated Matters

Flu season is here again, and keeping yourself healthy has never been easier. This year, CityMed Pharmacy invites you to get your Flu and COVID-19 vaccines together — all in one simple visit.

Starting October 14, 2025, both our White Rock and Surrey pharmacy locations will begin administering free vaccines under BC’s public program. Whether you walk in or book ahead, you’ll find a warm welcome and expert care every time.

Vaccination helps protect you, your family, and your community. It reduces hospital visits, prevents serious illness, and supports a safer environment for everyone — especially for seniors and caregivers.


✅ Walk-In or Book an Appointment

CityMed Pharmacy is making vaccination stress-free:

  • Walk-ins are welcome — just come by!

  • Appointments are preferred — so your vaccine is ready and there’s no waiting time.

You can register online, by phone, or even ask for help in person.
