Going on holiday?
Before you travel.....
....We advise you to book an appointment with the nurse to discuss your antimalarial and vaccination requirements (ideally this should be at least eight weeks before you travel as vaccines need several weeks to take effect and others require multiple doses). Most appointments take 45 minutes to an hour.
Make sure you have a clear itinerary of your trip as you may only need antimalarials for part of your journey.
Different antimalarials are recommended for different parts of the world, as in some areas the parasite has become resistant to older drugs. Additionally there are a number of antimalarials and different ones suit different people. The nurse will advise on the most suitable medication for you and your journey.
Book an appointment for travel advice at Whitefield Surgery on 01604 760171. If you are going on holiday within the next couple of weeks you can call Masta Travel clinic where you can get your vaccinations at short notice
