Yes, we have Flu Hi Dose. As of Oct. 24, we will have covid vaccine. If you already booked a flu shot and would like a covid shot at the same time, you do not need to book a covid shot too. Just let the vaccinator know that you would like both when you arrive. Please note, when you book online, you will see the option of choosing one of two provider schedules, you can choose either.
