Doctor consultation & vaccinations
Travel Health & Vaccinations
Every trip is different, and your travel health plan should be too. During a doctor-led consultation, TMB reviews your destinations, travel dates, medical history, previous vaccination record, accommodation, and planned activities. You will receive clear advice on recommended or required vaccines, malaria prevention and destination-specific considerations such as food and water safety, insect-borne illness and being safe at altitude.
Vaccinations can usually be given during the same visit when clinically appropriate. Booking four to six weeks before departure is ideal, but it is still worth arranging a consultation if you are travelling sooner.

Key Consultation Requirements
Who Should Consider This Service?
- Holidaymakers and families, including those travelling with babies, children or teenagers, who want destination-specific vaccination and practical health advice.
- Students, business travellers and people visiting friends or relatives for study, work, placements, family visits or recurring overseas travel.
- Backpackers, adventure and long-stay travellers, or anyone whose itinerary may involve vaccines, malaria prevention, certification, remote areas or higher-risk activities.
Preparation for Your Appointment
- Bring your full itinerary, including all countries and regions, travel dates, accommodation and planned activities, so your doctor can assess destination-specific risks.
- Bring any previous vaccination records or certificates you have. If these are unavailable, tell the clinician what vaccines you remember receiving and when.
- Provide an up-to-date list of medicines, allergies and relevant health conditions. Tell the clinician if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, breastfeeding or have previously reacted to a vaccine or antimalarial medicine.
- Book four to six weeks before departure where possible, particularly if you may need a course of vaccines. If you are travelling sooner, it is still worth arranging a consultation.
