When to book and how many doses
Book travel vaccinations at least 4–8 weeks before departure where possible. Some vaccines need two or three doses spaced weeks apart — we confirm the schedule for your destination during your consultation. For urgent travel, contact us and we will advise what can still be completed in time.
Consultation fees are payable when you attend (£150). We do not take payment online at booking unless a specific service states otherwise.
Personal suitability check
We talk through who the vaccine is for, your circumstances, and whether it is the right choice for you or your child.

You leave knowing what can happen next, how to prepare, and how to plan around your schedule.
