Disease prevention is the key to public health. Vaccines work to protect infants, children and adults from illnesses and death caused by infectious diseases. Vaccines can help save lives by preventing diseases in the people who receive them and protect those who come in contact with unvaccinated people. Adults and children need proper immunizations and to ensure that the community is as protected as possible.

Adults and children can receive regularly scheduled and travel immunizations at Collin County Health Care Services as recommended by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). For information on travel immunization available at our clinic, visit our Travel Medicine page. The following vaccines are available at our immunization clinics:

Prices for children's vaccines are not listed because they are based on a sliding scale that ranges from $5 to $14 per shot per child. ONLY cash or checks will be accepted. Credit and debit cards are NOT accepted. Prices are subject to change and may be higher or lower depending on the availability of vaccines.

Adults can receive immunizations (except for travel medicine immunizations) at our outreach clinics.

To obtain vaccination schedules for children and/or adults, visit the CDC website or consult with your primary care doctor. Please note that for children 2 months to 18 years of age, a complete shot record is required to obtain immunization at our clinics. A parent/guardian is also required to be present.

Adults and children can receive immunizations at our main clinic in McKinney. Below is a list of locations and hours of operations.

If you would like to enroll your child with ImmTrac, please contact one of our immunization team members for assistance.

Immtrac is the Texas immunization registry by the Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS). ImmTrac is a free, confidential registry designed to consolidate immunization records from multiple providers and store a child's immunization information electronically in one secure central system. ImmTrac offers physicians and other healthcare providers and authorized users easy online access to a child's immunization history. The Registry is part of a DSHS initiative to increase vaccination coverage for children across Texas.

With written parental consent, the ImmTrac Registry receives vaccination information for a child from private and public healthcare providers across the state, including input from the Vital Statistics Unit of DSHS, Women, Infant and Children (WIC) clinics, Medicaid, the Texas-Wide Integrated Client Encounter System (TWICES), and health care plans. Upon registration with ImmTrac, immunization information is available to schools, licensed child-care facilities, local health departments, public health districts, payors, and state agencies having legal custody of a child. Parents may request their child's ImmTrac record from their physician or their local health department.
