Questions & answers
Travel vaccine FAQs
Which travel vaccines do I need?
It depends on your destination, dates, length of stay, accommodation, activities, medical history and previous vaccines. A travel consultation gives you personalised recommendations.
How far before travel should I book?
Ideally 6-8 weeks before departure, especially if you may need a course of vaccines. If travelling sooner, book as early as possible as we can often still help.
Can I get more than one travel vaccine at the same appointment?
Often yes, but this depends on the vaccines, your medical history, suitability and availability.
Do you provide Yellow Fever vaccine?
We do not currently provide Yellow Fever vaccination. If your trip may require it, you should attend a registered Yellow Fever vaccination centre.
Do you offer flu and COVID vaccinations?
Yes. Flu and COVID vaccinations are available from 1st October 2026 at both pharmacies. They are free on the NHS for eligible patients, and available privately if you are not eligible. Our pharmacist will confirm whether you qualify.
