We offer a full range of inoculations for travel abroad. Most inoculations are free on the NHS. We do not charge, however, for inoculations not available on the NHS, for cholera certificates and private prescriptions. It is essential to organise inoculations for planned trips as early as possible.
We are not a Yellow Fever centre however, so if your travel plans require vaccination against Yellow Fever you will need to attend a recognised centre (www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Yellow-fever/Pages/Prevention.aspx)

Medical Examinations/Insurance reports etc:
We can perform medical examinations for insurance, employment, HGV, racing drivers, diving etc., though they are not within the remit of the NHS and therefore chargeable. We will also consider requests for travel insurance claims, statements of health (relating to parachute jumps for example) & others. These are also not within the remit of the NHS & will also attract a fee. Please ask at reception if you require an appointment and the current fee. We will take your details and ask someone to contact you regarding your request. As the items listed above (& this list is not exhaustive) are not NHS services, they cannot be done on demand. Please allow a minimum of 7 working days for your request to be actioned (& if a medical examination is needed, the time scale will be longer)
