We all know that having our children vaccinated is a must for their protection against diseases, but it’s also a fact that completing that immunization chart costs an arm and a leg. I swear, when Gwen finished her series of “shots” when she was around 2 years old, I was relieved. Parang natapos na ako sa gastos. Coughing up 3,000-5,000 pesos every pedia visit is no joke. Now that Gwen is 4 years old, our pedia reminded us that it’s time for her booster shots especially the chicken pox since uso daw ngayon.
We paid Php 3,400 for her chicken pox booster at her pedia in St. Lukes. But I remembered that a friend told me about Jacob’s Ladder Immunization Center that offers cheaper vaccines. They said that vaccines at Jacob’s are 30% cheaper than the ones at the doctor’s clinic. In our case, when I compared the price, it’s around Php 1,000 cheaper. You don’t have to worry because there’s also a doctor that will administer the vaccine.
Here is the list of the vaccines available at Jacob’s Ladder Immunization Center with their prices (as of March 2015):

Ang laking tipid di ba? You can check if your doctor uses the same brand with Jacob’s Ladder and then compare the prices.
Before, they have a clinic inside SM Southmall. But now they moved to a different location. For those in Manila, they also have a branch in UN.

I love Jacob’s Ladder! We got all of Neo’s vaccine at Jacob’s Ladder. Super cheap and super nice the staff. 🙂

I’m having some problems with my kids’ vaccines. They haven’t updated since after 1 year old and I really feel that we should get to it. We were supposed to do it with their pedia in St.Luke’s but we never seem to find a good fit in the schedule. Jacob’s ladder is far, though, I wish they have one in BGC. We might just go to the health center for this
Mitchteryosa says
I’m glad we’re over it na! Di biro ang gastos! Booster booster na lang din unlike noon na buwan buwan talaga. sSkit sa bulsa!
I wonder if may parang Jacob’s Immunization Center din dito sa amin. I doubt.
Neri Ann says
sis ung sa cervical vaccine, per shot ba yang price nila?
misisb says
Yes Neri, per shot
misisb says
Sana nga dumami yung branches nila
misisb says
Yes, same lang din naman sa health center. Pero they have the UN branch, just in case it’s nearer.
misisb says
Wow! Big savings from the start.
May De Jesus-Palacpac says
Did they close their MOA branch already?
misisb says
They don’t have a branch in MOA. SM Southmall maybe?
roseann says
may malapit po bang branch ng jacob’s ladder center? dito po sa quezon city?
misisb says
Hi Roseann, nearest branch is yung branch nila sa Manila eh
Isabel Talens says
You should try vaccines offered by MAGSAYSAY MARITIME CORPORATION. Way cheaper than of Jacob’s. Cervarix is only Php 1,888 and Gardasil is only 3.400.00. Hepa B is 500 both adult and junior dose. And for their flu, it is only worth 500.00.
I just had my dengvaxia in their hub and have it for only 4,500. Dr price is 5000 above.
misisb says
Thank you Isabel for the additional info. But can we buy vaccines even if we’re not employees of Magsaysay? For the flu, Watsons and Mercury offers them for Php 450.

Hi, better ask/call Jacob’s Center na lang regarding your concern.
