Project Description
Travel Vaccines
We offer pre-travel health checks, a travel health advice service and advice regarding recommended vaccination and anti-malarial prophylaxis for all patients. If you are planning foreign travel, you should book a consultation with the doctor well in advance.
Ideally, book your appointment at least four to six weeks before your planned trip. Your individual requirements will be assessed based on your destination, length of trip, previous vaccinations and medical history.
A great website to access information about General travel health advice/disease prevention advice is www.fitfortravel.nhs.uk. They outline all vaccinations required for every country and specific outbreaks happening all over the world.
The following immunisations are available from the Abbey Medical Clinic
- Yellow Fever – Clinic licensed to offer this.
- Tetanus and Diphtheria
- Polio
- Typhoid
- Hepatitis A
- Hepatitis B
- Meningitis Type A
- Rabies
- Hepatitis A + Typhoid can be given as one injection
Ideally, it is best to present for your vaccinations and advice some 6 weeks before departure date to ensure that all vaccination courses can be completed before travel.
