HPV Vaccination at Liv & Harley Street Hospital

Protect Yourself – and Your Loved Ones – from HPV-Related Cancer

What is Menopause Care?

HPV vaccination is a simple course of injections that guards against the high-risk strains of Human Papillomavirus responsible for most cervical, anal, throat and genital cancers, as well as 90 % of genital warts. Delivered by our consultant-led team at Liv & Harley Street Hospital, the vaccine provides long-lasting, science-backed protection for girls, boys, women and men up to age 45.

A few quick injections today can prevent multiple cancers tomorrow. Book your HPV vaccination appointment at Liv & Harley Street Hospital’s Women’s & Men’s Health Clinic and enjoy lifelong peace of mind.
