Travel Advice

How do I book a Travel Health Appointment?

Please note this service is only available to patients registered with us.

We are currently experiencing a high demand for appointments with urgent and complex health needs. Therefore, to ensure we can accommodate appointments for non-urgent care such as travel vaccines, please complete a travel risk assessment form at least 12 weeks prior to travel. 

Complete and submit the Travel Risk Assessment Form below. Once we have reviewed your submitted form, we will send you a text reply with advice for any NHS Vaccines that may be required. 

We require one form per person travelling, this way we can work out each person's individual plan based on their personal health and immunisation history and save the information into their medical records. 

It is important to submit your assessment as soon as possible - at least 12 weeks before you travel - as once we have recommended the vaccines you will need, you may require further appointments with the practice nurse to actually receive the vaccinations. Ideally these vaccinations need to be given 3-4 weeks before you travel.

If you are travelling and staying abroad for work/business, please do not submit our travel questionnaire. You will need to attend a travel clinic for advice and vaccinations.
