Visit the travel doctor at least 6 weeks before you leave
A travel consultation takes more time than most people think because the advice needs to be individualised, and there are many ways to prevent health problems overseas.
Some vaccinations need time before they become effective, therefore it is advisable to book an appointment at least 6 weeks before departure.
Late vaccinations are better than no vaccinations
Have you booked a last minute trip? Remember, it is never too late to get travel health advice: late vaccinations are better than no vaccinations.
Please fill out a pre-travel form before you see the doctor.
