FAQs – Everything You Need to Know Before You Travel
Q1: Do I need an appointment?
You don’t need to book in advance for a free travel health consultation — just walk in. However, if your trip requires specific vaccines or medications that are not kept in stock, we may need to order them in. Booking ahead ensures availability and faster turnaround, especially during busy periods.Q2: When should I book before I travel?
Some travel vaccines require more than one dose, and immunity takes time to build. We recommend getting in touch at least 4–6 weeks before your departure. However, if you're travelling soon, don't worry — we also offer same-day consultations for last-minute travellers.Q3: How do I know what vaccines I need?
Our pharmacists will provide a personalised travel health consultation based on your destination(s), the length and purpose of your trip, and your medical history. We follow the latest NHS, WHO, and NaTHNaC guidelines to give you accurate and reliable advice.Q4: Do you provide malaria tablets?
Yes — we offer a full range of malaria prevention medications tailored to your travel destination and risk level. After a short consultation, you can receive the recommended tablets without needing a GP prescription.Q5: What if I'm visiting multiple countries?
No problem — our consultations take into account multi-country travel itineraries. We'll assess each destination’s health risks and ensure you have the appropriate vaccines and medications for your entire journey.Q6: Do I need a prescription?
No — our pharmacists are trained to supply travel vaccines and medications under Patient Group Directions (PGDs). This means you can get everything you need directly from the pharmacy, often on the same day.
