A clinic consultation is a risk assessment, completed face to face with one of our travel health specialist at a Global Travel and vaccination centre convenient for you. The travel health specialist will assess your individual travel plans and health history before making recommendations. If vaccinations are required, then they can be administered during the same appointment.

You will be seen by an experienced travel health specialist who has up to date knowledge of travel vaccines, disease processes and malaria prevention. We will provide our patients with the most up to date information on travel health, specific to the planned destination.

Travel vaccinations are a necessary precaution to immunise you against infectious and potentially incurable diseases found overseas. In some situations, proof of vaccination must be provided before entry is permitted and failure to do so can result in quarantine, immunisation or entry being denied.

Babies can and should be vaccinated before travelling overseas. The childhood vaccination programme offers protection against various diseases but doesn’t cover many of the infectious diseases found in some tropical countries.

Best practice dictates that vaccinations should be given a minimum of 4 weeks before travel. This not only gives your body enough time to build up enough tolerance to the disease but also allows for those vaccinations which require multiple doses spread over several weeks. However, vaccines which do not consist of a course can be given from 7-10 days before travel. What’s more, in situations where an International Certificate of Vaccination is required before entry is permitted, admittance may be denied until a specific timeframe has elapsed.

Yellow fever – Required for some countries in Africa and South America. We will provide you with the International Certificate of Vaccination at your appointment.

Meningococcal Vaccine (against A, C, Y, W-135) – Required for Hajj visit to Saudi Arabia. We will provide you with a Certificate of Vaccination. According to the CDC website Hajj visas cannot be issued without proof of meningococcal vaccination.

The necessity of certain vaccinations is dependent on a number of key risk factors, including destination of travel, duration and season of travel, standards of accommodation, food hygiene and sanitation, and traveller behaviour. To identify what level of risk you are likely to face, it can be prudent to book an appointment with a travel medicine consultant who can help advise on the most critical vaccinations to choose.

In most cases, it is not too late to be vaccinated again. The main rule is that you must continue the vaccination program you have started. If you are in doubt, we will be able to help you with your question and be able to book a time for the next vaccination.
