What Are Travel Clinic Vaccinations?
Travel clinic vaccinations protect against diseases you might encounter when travelling internationally. These may include:
- Yellow Fever (required entry for some countries in Africa and South America)
- Typhoid (common in parts of Asia, Africa, and Latin America)
- Hepatitis A & B (viruses spread via contaminated food, water, or bodily fluids)
- Meningitis (especially important for travel to the African meningitis belt or Hajj pilgrimage)
- Rabies (for travellers spending time outdoors or with animals in high-risk regions)
- Cholera (recommended for areas with low sanitation or active outbreaks)
Your consultation determines exactly which vaccinations are needed based on destination, duration, and planned activities.

When Should You Book Travel Clinic Vaccinations?
It’s recommended to book travel vaccinations at least 6 to 8 weeks before departure.

Vaccination pricing varies by vaccine type and quantity. At Rother Care Pharmacy, we provide transparent, upfront costs including consultation, vaccine doses, and certification. During your booking process, our team will confirm any total costs. Many clients find private travel clinic vaccination services more flexible and faster than waiting for the NHS, especially for leisure trips.

Everyone should consider travel vaccine advice before heading abroad, but especially those who:
- Visit tropical or developing regions

Travel Clinic FAQs Section
When should I get travel vaccinations before travelling?
Most travellers should receive travel vaccinations at least 6 to 8 weeks before departure. This allows enough time for vaccines to become effective and for any required multi-dose courses to be completed.
Can I get travel vaccinations at a pharmacy?
Yes. Travel vaccinations can be provided by trained pharmacists following a travel health consultation. Many travellers choose pharmacies because appointments are convenient and vaccine availability is often immediate.
