Do you need vaccinations?

Travel Vaccinations 

From January 2024 we are we are reinstating offering travel vaccinations at Maple surgery. We will only offer our patients NHS travel vaccinations at this time. 

These are; 

  • Polio (given as Td/IPV) 
  • Tetanus 
  • Typhoid 
  • Hepatitis A 
  • Cholera 

Patients are advised to contact the surgery and book an initial telephone travel consultation with one of our nurses. We will then discuss your travel needs and make any recommendations /book you an appointment if required. Please arrange an appointment for a travel consultation at least 6-8 weeks before departure. You will be sent a questionnaire prior to your telephone appointment. Please note that we will not carry out the consultation if this questionnaire has not been completed.  

Vaccines need time to take effect and some may require a course over several weeks. Patients are advised that bookings for travel vaccinations are limited therefore please book well in advance.  

If you require other travel vaccinations we would recommend that you access these at any private travel clinic.
