Vaccines in Kolkata

Hi, I'm staying on Sudder Street and need a Hepatitis B booster (the original was a month ago in the States).

I did some Googling and came up with these options:

* Vaccine Centre, 17A Nalin Sarkar St, Kol-4
* St. Mary's Clinic, 170 Keshab Chandra Sen, Kol-9
* Ballygunge Drug Centre, 22 Ballygunge Park, Kol-19
* Bengal Immunity Centre, 39 AJC Bose Road, Kol-17

Does anyone have any recommendations, and any idea of how much such a thing should cost? I assume from the district numbers that the last 2 would be closest to Sudder Street.

Thanks in advance,
Charles

You can buy this vaccine from any good chemist's shop and they will also direct you to a local doc who will administer this.

Correct, this will not be a problem in Kolkata.

You can also visit and Doc and he will give you the shot. Otherwise, buy the dose as stated and the Chemist shop will arrange it.
