We offer a full range of inoculations for travel abroad. Most inoculations are
free on the NHS. WE DO CHARGE, however, for inoculations not available on the
NHS, for cholera certificates and private prescriptions. It is essential to organise
inoculations for planned trips as early as possible.

vaccine for the elderly and patients with chronic heart, lung or kidney disease,
diabetics and residents of nursing and rest homes. The vaccination is available
in October. Please ask at reception.

Patients in this age group are invited by letter to an annual consultation with

be arranged.
