Travel Health
We are not a travel clinic and can only offer a limited service. If you are going abroad and think you may require vaccinations, you must first complete a travel questionnaire (see below). Nurses do not carry out telephone consultations regarding holiday vaccinations.
You need to submit the form at least 2 months (8 weeks) before you travel. Failure to do so will mean we are unable to offer this service. The form asks for details such as which countries you are visiting and the specific areas within those countries, so that the nurses can determine which vaccinations are required.
Once you have submitted the form, we will contact you when it has been assessed by the nursing team.
Holiday vaccinations should ideally be given a minimum of 2 weeks before travel.
Some travel vaccines require a private prescription and will incur a charge, as not all travel vaccinations are included in NHS services.
Please note: We are only able to offer vaccinations if we have appointment availability. If your travel date is soon or your vaccination needs are urgent, it is recommended that you book with a dedicated travel clinic, as they can provide a full and timely service.
