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