Travel Health
We can provide general travel health advice and prescriptions for prophylactic medications (e.g. Malaria Prophylaxis) if necessary. Illnesses may be caused by contaminated food or water, poor personal hygiene or infected insects. We can also advise which medications might be useful to bring as a precaution.
​
We recommend that patients contact and use the TMB when it comes to Travel Vaccines.
