We do not run a Travel Clinic, but here are some places that do...
Ashcroft surgery does not run a travel clinic. The only vaccinations that we provide free of charge are Diptheria/Polio/Tetanus, Hepatitis A, Typhoid, and Cholera (the last one always needs ordering in advance, so you need to tell us early!).

Frequently Asked Questions
Both of these websites are magnificent! What vaccinations you require for each country depends on whether there is a particular problem or outbreak of something there. Both of these websites are kept up to date and will tell you exactly what you need.

If you need immunisations, we cannot stress how important it is for you to book in early. Please do not leave things until the last two weeks! We cannot “squeeze” you in if you leave it late because that would be unfair on other patients who have genuine medical problems that need attending to.
On the NHS, you can only get Diptheria/Polio/Tetanus, Hepatitis A, Typhoid and Cholera. We need plenty of time to order these in so make sure you book in early and do not leave it until the last week. If you need any other vaccines in addition to these, then please visit a specialised Travel Clinic as listed above.
