Travel Vaccinations

If you require any vaccinations relating to foreign travel you need to make an appointment with the practice nurse to discuss your travel arrangements. This will include which countries and areas within countries that you are visiting to determine what vaccinations are required.

There is further information about countries and vaccinations required on the links below

Europe & Russia	North America
Central America	South America
Caribbean	Africa
Middle East	Central Asia
East Asia	Australasia and Pacific

It is important to make this initial appointment as early as possible - at least 6 weeks before you travel - as a second appointment will be required with the practice nurse to actually receive the vaccinations. These vaccines have to be ordered as they are not a stock vaccine. Your second appointment needs to be at least 2 weeks before you travel to allow the vaccines to work.

Some travel vaccines are ordered on a private prescription and these incur a charge over and above the normal prescription charge. This is because not all travel vaccinations are included in the services provided by the NHS.

Travel Health Questionnaire

Non-NHS Services

We can provide a range of non-NHS services for which we charge the standard fee recommended by the British Medical Association. These services include examinations for employers, solicitors, insurance companies, PSV, HGV and elderly driving licenses. 

Please note a charge is made for completing passport applications, holiday cancellation forms and insurance certificates. Enquire at reception for further details.

Sickness Certificates

Doctors are not obliged to issue sick notes for periods of absence from work of less than seven days including weekends.  After three days absence you should obtain a self certificate form from your employer.  If your employer insists on a private certificate then either he or you must be prepared to pay a fee for this service.
