About this service
Every journey is different. The advice and protection you may need depend on where you are travelling, how long you will be away, your planned activities, accommodation, medical history and previous vaccinations.
During your consultation, we will complete an individual travel-health risk assessment, explain any recommended or required vaccinations and discuss other health considerations relevant to your trip.
Ideally, contact us at least six to eight weeks before travelling. Some vaccination courses require more than one dose, but even if your departure date is closer, it is still worth getting in touch.
