WELCOME
Malahide Family Practice is a custom-built ground floor Surgery in the heart of Malahide Village that has wheelchair and buggy accessibility.
Our medical staff are Dr Claire Fitzsimmons, Dr Kathleen McClory, Dr Aimee Murphy, Dr Joanne Daly, Dr Harkamal Bawa & Dr Fiona McCudden. We have two Practice Nurses, Bernie Campbell & Reena Chaudhary.
Aoibhinn Dinnigan is the Practice Manager, and our Admin Team is Liz Soffe, Alva Meehan, Ciara Farrell, Selina Sweeney & Sharon McArdle.
We have taken the difficult decision to not accept new patients for the foreseeable future. It is important that we offer our current patients the best service we can. Once we decide to reopen again, you'll be the first to know. Any changes to this policy will be posted here, Instagram and Facebook.
If you are travelling to another country…
Babies age 6 to 11 months can get an MMR vaccine before travelling. You can get the vaccine for free from us here at the Surgery. Try to get the vaccine at least 2 weeks before you travel. Babies under the age of 6 months cannot get the MMR vaccine. But they still have any protection that was passed on during pregnancy. If your baby gets an MMR vaccine before the age of 12 months, this does not change the regular vaccination schedule. This means they still need to get the doses at age:
12 months
4 to 5 years (in junior infants through their Primary School)
