Do you need vaccinations?

Our Nurses can provide comprehensive travel health advice and arrange for appropriate immunisations. We need 8 week’s notice for European travel and 12 week’s notice for worldwide travel. If travel is less than this, we are unable to provide holiday vaccination immunisations or advice.

If you require a prescription for travel please ensure that all your blood tests and annual health checks are up to date to prevent a delay in issue of medication. The GP will only issue a maximum of 3 months supply of medication. If you are away for longer than this you will need to source further supply from a doctor in the destination you are travelling to.

Contact details for travel clinic
