Overseas Travel

Any patient travelling overseas should check if they are travelling to an area that requires travel vaccinations, and if there are any restrictions on what medicines they can take into that country. Some countries have very strict laws about medications and maybe illegal.

Further information and advice about travelling abroad with medicines can be found at: Travel Medication

Please also look at the attached document, taken from the Gov.UK website, for information on foreign embassy contact details: Contact Details for Foreign Embassies

Please ask at reception for a Travel Health Questionnaire; this can be sent to you via text and should be read and completed. If you are travelling in less than 6 weeks time you will need to go to Travel Clinic.

Please be aware if a whole family require travel vaccinations we may not be able to provide you appointments together.

We only provide NHS Travel vaccines. Our Practice Nurses will advise if any private travel vaccines are needed and where these may be obtained.

Malaria medication is only available from Private Travel Clinics.

Further information can be obtained from Travel Health Pro or Fit For Travel 

Please be aware that in line with our Practice Policy on repeat medication ordering we will issue no more than two months’ supply of regular medication. Should you be travelling for longer and require more medication you will need to seek advice independently.
