TRAVEL ADVICE

Our practice nurses are available by appointment to offer medical advice regarding travel and vaccinations where appropriate. Please telephone reception to book an appointment. 

Our nurses can provide travel health advice and arrange for appropriate immunisations. Please arrange an appointment for a travel consultation at least 6-8 weeks before departure if possible. Vaccines need time to take effect and some may require a course over several weeks.

Travel Vaccination Prices

Travel advice is covered by the NHS; however some vaccinations and prescriptions are only available privately. Payment for non-NHS services must be made at the first travel appointment.

Antimalarials are not available on a NHS prescription. The nurse will give you a private prescription and you will need to buy your medications from the pharmacy, it is worth shopping around for the best deal.

We do not currently offer yellow fever vaccination but can let you know your nearest yellow fever vaccination centre.
