Travel Vaccinations

Travel Vaccinations

Travel Immunisation:  We offer a comprehensive service to help you plan your travel requirements including immunisations.  We have access to up-to-date information.  Please consult reception for a form which needs to be completed, or obtain a copy below, and return at least 6 weeks before travelling, as some destinations require a complicated schedule of vaccination. 

PLEASE NOTE:   Some travel immunisations are not available at the practice – you will be referred onto the Travel Clinic in Exeter.

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.
