Travel With Confidence
Our Travel Clinic offers expert advice and a full range of travel vaccinations, so you can prepare properly before your next trip.
Why Travel Vaccinations Matter
Different destinations carry different health risks, and your body may not be prepared to fight off infections that are uncommon at home. Travel vaccines help protect you against serious illnesses, and in some cases are a mandatory requirement for entry into certain countries.
Vaccines & Advice We Offer
A wide range of options to suit your travel plans.
Core Travel Vaccines
Hepatitis A and B, typhoid, yellow fever, and tetanus, diphtheria & polio.
Region-Specific Protection
Rabies, cholera, Japanese encephalitis, and malaria prevention advice.
Hajj & Umrah Requirements
Meningitis ACWY vaccination and certificate for pilgrimage travel.
Planning Your Appointment
Most vaccines should be given at least two to three weeks before you travel, giving your body time to build protection. Some, like the rabies vaccine, involve a longer course, so it’s worth booking as early as possible once your trip is confirmed.
Tell us your itinerary: the vaccines and advice you need depend heavily on where you’re going, how long for, and what you’ll be doing, so bring your travel plans along to your appointment.
Personalised Travel Health Advice
Beyond vaccinations, we can also advise on antimalarial tablets and general travel health precautions, tailored to your destination, helping travellers across Dumfries & Galloway prepare properly for their trip.
