Travel Clinic

If you are planning to travel and need advice or vaccinations, please book a telephone consultation with one of our practice nurses who will advise you on the next steps.  Please ensure you allow at least 6 weeks before travelling to have your travel consultation. 

If you require any vaccinations relating to foreign travel you need to make an appointment with the practice nurse to discuss your travel arrangements. This will include which countries and areas within countries that you are visiting to determine what vaccinations are required.

Please note that we no longer offer Yellow Fever at our practice. 

These vaccines are currently offered for free on the NHS:

• Cholera
• Diptheria, Tetanus and Pertussis (DTP)
• Typhoid
• Hepatitis A

Other vaccines and malaria tablets can be obtained from private travel clinics or local pharmacies that have a travel clinic attached. Please ring ahead as you may need to book an appointment.

Read the latest health advice for the country you're travelling to on the Fit for Travel website and the NaTHNaC website, and check the travel safety updates with the Foreign & Commonwealth Office.

Prepare a kit of travel health essentials, including sunscreen, painkillers, antiseptic, insect repellent and anti-diarrhoea pills. These will be useful wherever you're going.

Sexual health experts advise taking condoms with you to avoid the risk of buying fake brands, which may be unsafe, when you get there.
