Travel Advice and Immunisations

If you require any vaccinations relating to foreign travel you need to contact the surgery and book an appointment with one of our practice nurses.  This needs to be done at least 8 weeks prior to travel, otherwise we may not be able to accommodate you in time for your full course of vaccinations.  If not we will advise you to go to another provider and we will provide you with a pack informing you what you need.

There is further information about countries and the vaccinations required on the link below:

Some travel vaccines are ordered on a private prescription and these incur a charge over and above the normal prescription charge and a charge may be applicable for vaccine certificates.  This is because not all travel vaccinations are included in the services provided by the NHS.
