Travel Vaccinations

Information and advice for travelling abroad

Travel Vaccination Advice

If you're planning to travel outside the UK, you may need to be vaccinated against some of the serious diseases found in other parts of the world. Please contact the practice and a private travel clinic at least 4 to 8 weeks before you travel, as some vaccines need to be given well in advance to allow your body to develop immunity.

You can find out which vaccinations are necessary or recommended for the areas you will be visiting by visiting the following websites:

Booking Travel Vaccinations

When you contact the practice, we will book an appointment with a trained nurse. At the time of booking, you will be sent a pre-travel questionnaire.

We strongly encourage you to complete this questionnaire before your appointment, as it helps our nursing team review your medical records and prepare the vaccines recommended for your trip.

Please note that pre-travel questionnaires are only reviewed at your appointment.

Vaccines Available at the Practice

The vaccines we offer at the GP practice are:

  • Diphtheria, Tetanus and Polio (given as a combined vaccine)
  • Typhoid
  • Hepatitis A

Private Travel Clinics

As we are not able to advise on private vaccines or malaria prophylaxis, we recommend that you contact a private travel clinic for further advice.
