Travel Questionnaires

To ensure that we have all the relevant information relating to your travel plans we ask that you complete a Travel Health Questionnaire for each person.

Please return the completed travel form to the surgery, we will then contact you to arrange a suitable appointment.

Non-urgent advice: Please Note

Travel forms must be handed into the Surgery a minimum of 6 weeks before travel, otherwise you will be classed as a last minute traveller, and will be asked to attend Travel Clinics as listed below.


Travel Clinics

Malaria prophylaxis usually needs to be started 2 weeks before you depart and some vaccinations involve a whole course which may take up to 1 – 6 months depending on the immunity required.
