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 (£30). We do not take payment online at booking unless a specific service states otherwise.
Personal suitability check
We talk through your health, medicines, and allergies to help you decide if pneumonia vaccination is suitable.
Timing and planning support
We help you plan the best time for vaccination around work, travel plans, and other recent vaccines.
Clear next steps
You leave knowing what happens next, what to expect after vaccination, and how to look after yourself.
What this service involves
