Travel Vaccinations
Important
The Vine Medical Centre is not a registered Yellow Fever Centre and cannot provide this vaccination, if required you will need to make an appointment with a Yellow Fever Centre.
If you require any vaccinations relating to foreign travel, please complete our online travel form.
It is important to make this initial appoinment as early as possible - at least 6 weeks before you travel. At this appoinment the nurse & yourself will look at where you are going, your travel plans and past medical history to carry out a travel risk assessment before deciding what vaccines you need. You may need follow up appoinments to actually recieve the vaccines as some are spread over a period of weeks.
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.
The most common travel vaccines can be offered on the NHS:
- Tetanus, Diphtheria & Polio
- Typhoid
- Hepatitis A
- Combined Hepatitis A & Hepatitis B (if required and eligible)
- Cholera
Those not offered on the NHS can be provided in the surgery for a fee:
- Hepatitis B
- Rabies
Those not offered on the NHS or in surgery can be provided under private prescription and dispensing fees:
- Japanese Encephalitis
- Tick-borne Encephalitis
- Meningitis ACWY
- Malaria Tablets
