The practice nurses offer comprehensive travel advice for our patients travelling abroad. Initial enquiries can be made either by telephone or online consultation (click here to begin a consultation). The nurse will call you to ascertain individual needs and can provide advice but clinics are currently not available. Patients would need to contact a private clinic or they can also speak with their local pharmacy if any vaccinations are needed. Ideally enquire with us at least 6 weeks prior to travel; for longer trips please allow 8 weeks, this is to ensure all vaccine courses can be completed before departure.

Please help us to help you better by having as much information as possible to hand including:

- Any previous vaccinations (especially anything given at private clinics or elsewhere)
