Travel Health

If you’re planning to travel, it’s important to arrange your travel vaccination appointment early, ideally 4-6 weeks prior to travel. We will also provide general travel health advice and prescriptions for prophylactic medications (e.g. Malaria Prophylaxis) if necessary. Illnesses may be caused by contaminated food or water, poor personal hygiene or infected insects.

 

Whether you’re looking for a particular travel vaccine or you would like to consult us about an upcoming trip, we can advise you on the appropriate vaccinations, administer the vaccines and also advise which medications might be useful to bring as a precaution.

Complete the Travel Consultation Form  (practice patients only) and we will get in touch with you to book a phone consultation, during which we will advise on all the recommended vaccinations for your trip and the cost involved. Common vaccines required for travel throughout Asia, Africa and America include Hepatitis A, Typhoid, Tetanus, Diphtheria and Polio. Many vaccines must be given at least two weeks before travel. Some must be given even sooner, so please contact us as soon as possible.
