where can i get Gardasil 9 (HPV vaccine) ?

Lotusroot

Does anyone know how to get this vaccine? ive been trying to pay more attention to sexual health now that i have started this hobby.  Im already 32, so im a bit late to get the vaccine but i guess better late than never, does anyone know how i go about getting this vaccine? can  you go to a walk in clinic? ive know my family doctor my whole life and he knows my family so itd be a bit awkward to ask him about it and tell him im having "casual" sex with a lot of strangers......

Family doctor.... I don' think they ask you why.. and if they do.. say I want to be on the safe side.

Thanks for the info guys! i actually went to the local "sexual health clinic" which was really close to my house.  Got the shot a few days ago, took about 2 weeks to book in advance.  No questions asked, really simple process and cost me about 170 bucks, luckily my insurance will cover 90% of it but i would recommend everyone get it even if you have to pay out of pocket.  Just want to spread more info about this,  basically if you are my age or anyone over like 22 or 23 you did not get vaccinated in school as they did not have this program until recently.  I believe it is free for anyone under 26 and covered by OHIP.

Thanks for sharing! Just a question: Do you need family doctor's referral or your just called the "sexual health clinic" to book your appointment?

i just called them, at first i wanted to check if i was immunized at school because i was unsure.  Then the nurse said i can go to a walk in but that might take longer to order the medication at the pharmacy etc. and she said i can just book it there.
