Book Travel Vaccination Appointment
What is a travel health consultation?
During your travel health consultation your Doctor will discuss:
- Required vaccinations
- Risk factors
- Preventative measures
- Review your current health status
Your Doctor will also be able to provide any travel documentation including customs letter and/or proof of yellow fever vaccination.
What to expect
- Please phone reception on (07) 3229 9355 to make an appointment and advise that you require a travel health consultation
- You will generally be booked for a 30 minute appointment with your Doctor for consultation followed by vaccination via one of the Registered Nurses
- You will be charged a consultation fee and the cost of the vaccines (if you have private health “extras” you may be able to claim some of the cost of the vaccines)
- We do ask that you remain in the clinic for 10 minutes after your vaccines to monitor for any adverse reactions
- Your vaccination history can be uploaded to your My Health Record or provided to you as a handout.
If you are planning a trip overseas it is always a good idea to check the recommended immunisations for travel. Your GP can provide specific country related travel information and immunisation advice, as well as a medication certificate if travelling with prescription medications. We have the majority of vaccinations required for travel at the Practice, meaning you won’t need to go elsewhere for them.
