Travel Health
Our Medical Advisory Services for Travellers Abroad (MASTA) Travel Clinic offers personally tailored travel information and health advice to any traveller. Our e-clinic provides up-to-date information with regard to vaccination requirements to more than 260 countries and the individual recommendations for travellers with multiple and complicated travel arrangements can be compiled very quickly. The e-clinic is updated daily from local information and includes Foreign Office and Commonwealth Office advice as well as general health data.
The tariff for immunisations and anti-malarial products is uniform throughout MASTA .
Before travelling overseas, it is important to be aware of the possible health risks and how to prevent problems or minimise the chances of them occurring. Most importantly, you should know:
- Whether there are any specific health risks in the country you are travelling to for which you need to take precautions, for example malaria.
- How to avoid becoming ill when you are abroad.
- What to do if you do become ill when you are abroad.
- How to get emergency medical treatment when you are abroad
Our travel services offer advice on travel illnesses and a full range of vaccinations. If you are travelling abroad you will need to start thinking about your travel vaccinations 4-6 weeks before you are due to leave as some vaccinations can take time to become effective.
We will be reopening our travel clinics services from week commencing 18th November and will be held on a Monday morning, Tuesday afternoon, Wednesday afternoon, and Friday morning. Travel clinics are run by Dr Osuagwu, Dr Varsani, Nurse Alison, Nurse Emma and Nurse Natalie. Appointments are available for both Bennetts End Surgery patients and those registered elsewhere.
