Whether it is a long-awaited holiday or a working trip abroad, getting your travel health right makes the difference between enjoying every day away and losing one to something preventable. Our Dartford travel clinic helps patients across Kent prepare with the right jabs, antimalarials and advice for their itinerary.
Why travel vaccinations matter
Some countries require proof of vaccination for entry (yellow fever is the common one). Many do not, but a short illness on a long flight or remote trip can still derail a holiday. A short consultation lines up only the jabs your specific trip needs - not a one-size-fits-all checklist.
Common travel vaccinations we offer in Dartford
- Hepatitis A and B - common across Asia, Africa and South America
- Typhoid - areas with poor sanitation
- Yellow Fever - required entry for much of Africa and South America
- Japanese Encephalitis - rural Asia, longer trips
- Rabies - adventure travel and remote areas
- Meningitis ACWY - required for Hajj and recommended for sub-Saharan Africa
When to book
Aim for **6-8 weeks before departure** so courses can be completed and immunity is in place. Travelling sooner? Come in anyway - we can usually still help with last-minute cover and antimalarials.
What to expect at the appointment
Our pharmacist will run through your itinerary, any medical history that matters, then recommend a tailored plan. We cover food and water safety, insect bite prevention and antimalarial options too.
