Travel Health
Not always. Your destination, length of stay, activities, medical history and previous vaccines all affect what you need — which is why a consultation matters.
Ideally 6–8 weeks before travel. This allows time for vaccines to become fully effective and for multi-dose courses if required. Last-minute appointments may still help.
We review your destination, itinerary, duration, type of travel, medical history and previous vaccinations, then provide clear guidance aligned with Department of Health recommendations.
Travel consultation is £40. If you proceed with vaccination, the consultation fee is reduced to £25.
