The Travel Risk Assessment Form needs to be completed and returned to the surgery before you can book your appointment.

Travel vaccines can be very complex and numerous factors have to be taken into consideration when giving travel advice and vaccinations.  To help the Travel Nurses assess your travel needs it is important that they are in receipt of the risk assessment form prior to your appointment.

Travel Clinic Appointments

Travel Clinic Appointments need to be booked at least 8 weeks before the date of Travel.

Please allow as much notice as possible when booking your Travel Clinic Appointment. 

Even if 8 weeks notice has been given, it may be that travellers requiring several vaccinations will need to go elsewhere to obtain some of their vaccination.

If you require travel advice and injections, we will be unable to see you at The Porch unless you have a) Completed a Risk Assessment Form, and b) Made an appointment at least 8 weeks prior to your travel date.

If you fail to keep your travel clinic appointment without giving adequate cancellation notice, you will not be able to book a further Travel Clinic appointment at the Porch.  See other options below.
