Where to find your Immunization Records
- Check with your childhood pediatrician or family doctor.
- The pharmacy you go to may have records of any shots they have given you
- County health clinics
- Log into “My Chart” or any patient portal
- Ask your parents
- Your public high school
- Past healthcare or education employers may have records of shots you were required to take while employed
What to do if you still can't find them but think you had the vaccines
Visit your doctor and ask for a blood test called a “Titer” and tell them the specific vaccine you need to determine you had. They will draw a blood sample and test it for antibodies. The presence of antibodies indicates that you had the vaccine. You may upload this in place of the vaccine record. Please Note: This can take a week to get your results. Please let the person know all the things you need “Titers” for at the same time so they can do it in one draw, and you can probably get your physical form filled out at the same time.
