Travel Vaccinations / Visa Applications

The Practice nurses are happy to advise you as to the necessary travel vaccinations for foreign travel and to administer them as required. Some vaccinations require a prescription to be prepared in advance or may need a course of injections. So please make arrangements at least 6-8 weeks prior to travel to ensure adequate period of time to be vaccinated. 

We are also a designated Yellow Fever Centre and therefore can administer the Yellow Fever Vaccine if required. Please note, this vaccine carries a charge. Please ask for further information at time of booking.

Test Results

Please call between 11am and 3.30pm to enquire about your test results as our reception staff will have more time to deal with your request between these times.

Note that the practice has a strict policy regarding confidentiality and data protection and we will only release test results to the person to whom they relate unless that person has given prior permission for the release of this data or they are not capable of understanding the results.

Your doctor or nurse will advise you as to how to obtain your x-ray or laboratory test results. You may be asked to telephone the practice at a specific time in order to speak to your doctor, to make another appointment or the doctor may contact you directly. 

It is your responsibility to check your results and to make an appointment to discuss them with your doctor if your are advised to do so.
