Travel Vaccination
We can advise on all necessary vaccinations for travel abroad. Please be aware that
vaccination for travel abroad is not a service provided completely free of charge
by the NHS and the practice therefore raises a charge for any vaccinations not
available on the NHS. The chemist will also charge the full cost of the vaccine.
Please allow plenty of time to complete courses of vaccination.
Other Services Not Covered By The NHS For Which A Fee Is Payable
Medicals for HGV, PSV, pre-employment, insurance medicals and certificates and certain
travel vaccinations. These can be arranged through reception.
