Travel Medicine
Overseas travel exposes you to wonderful new experiences, but it can also expose you to potentially serious health risks. Remember – your health is your responsibility – with a bit of preparation, you can prevent an illness that could ruin your holiday, or worse.
Our doctor can advise you on measures which can be taken to avoid infectious diseases to which you might be exposed while overseas. This might include measures to avoid consuming potentially contaminated water or food, medication to reduce the risk of acquiring infections or vaccination against serious disease. Many diseases which are a risk to travellers can be prevented by immunisation. You should talk to your doctor about any vaccines or boosters you may need.
Some diseases that should be considered are:
- Hepatitis A
- Hepatitis B
- Influenza
- Japanese encephalitis
- Meningococcal disease
- Rabies
- Tuberculosis
- Typhoid
- Varicella (Chickenpox)
- Yellow fever
- Cholera
- Measles
It is important to schedule a visit to your doctor at least 6-8 weeks before you travel to allow time to complete any vaccination schedule you undertake. Please note that the patients have to purchase the vaccinations. Prescriptions will be provided at the initial consultation with the doctor. A subsequent visit must be booked with the nurse and the doctor to have your vaccination.
