It is mandatory that patient schedule their travel vaccine appointment at least 8 weeks prior to their departure date.  Any requests for travel consultation requested less than 8 weeks prior to the department will not be approved. This ensures that there is sufficient time for the vaccines to take effect and for any additional doses or boosters that maybe required. 
Non-NHS Vaccines – Some travel vaccines, such as yellow fever are not available on the NHS and are not provided by our practice. These vaccines must be obtained from the pharmacy such as Junction Pharmacy or a private travel clinic.
