What to Expect From Your Travel Consultation
Our expert team begins with an initial consultation to understand your travel plans and medical history.
We’ll assess which travel vaccinations are required based on your destination, planned activities, and duration of stay.
From the rabies vaccine to yellow fever, hepatitis, typhoid, and more, we ensure you receive the necessary travel vaccines to offer maximum protection.
Why Travel Vaccinations Are Important
Diseases like malaria, hepatitis A, and typhoid may be rare in the UK, but they remain prevalent in many parts of the world.
These can be life-threatening and are often spread through food, water, or insect bites.
By administering travel vaccinations and prescribing antimalarial medication, we help our St Albans patients avoid serious illnesses that could otherwise derail their journey.
Vaccines work by stimulating your white blood cells to produce antibodies, which offer long-term defence against invading pathogens.
In many cases, a full course is required for immunity to develop, which is why early planning is essential.

About St Albans
St. Albans, located between Luton and Watford, is a city full of history. Visitors can take the time to plenty of buildings left over from the Romans, such as the centuries-old cathedral, Verulamium Museum, and the unique medieval Clock Tower, which dates back to 1405. Veralamium Park is not too far away or a visit to St. Albans School, where Professor Stephen Hawking was a pupil.
