Travel Vaccinations

For travel vaccinations book an appointment with the nurse six weeks before your travelling date.

To help us offer the appropriate advice, please do fill in a Travel questionnaire form and hand into reception before your appointment date, if the questionnaire is not filled out you may be asked to rebook your appointment.               

If you require any vaccinations relating to foreign travel you need to make an appointment with the practice nurse to discuss your travel arrangements. This will include which countries and areas within countries that you are visiting to determine what vaccinations are required.

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.

Sexual Health

For coil and implants (long-acting reversible contraceptives) first book a telephone appointment with Dr Amin or Dr Salker for Tuesday afternoon and Friday morning respectively. Following this a face-to-face consultation may be booked if suitable.

If you have concerns about your sexual health your GP will be able to advise you, or you can self-refer to St Ann’s Sexual Health Centre by phoning 020 8442 6536. Young people with sexual health concerns can use the SHHOUT! Service via their website (www.shharingey.co.uk/4yp.php)

If you would like to speak in private please do not hesitate to ask at reception.
