Travel vaccines and health tips before you leave Warwick

When to book a travel consult, what to bring, and how to stay well while you are away.

By the Warwick Doctors team. General information only, not written or reviewed by a GP.

When should I book?

Ideally six to eight weeks before you leave. Some vaccines need more than one dose, and protection takes time to build. If you are leaving sooner, it is still worth booking.

What to bring

  • Your itinerary, including rural or remote areas
  • Your vaccination record
  • A list of your regular medicines
  • Any health conditions or pregnancy plans

What we cover

Vaccines for your destination, medicines to take with you, advice on food and water safety, insect bite prevention and staying well on long flights.

Travelling with medicines

Carry medicines in their original packaging with a copy of your script or a letter from your GP, and check the rules for the countries you are visiting.

Costs

The travel consult is bulk billed for eligible patients with a valid Medicare card. Travel vaccines attract a charge, and reception can confirm the cost before your visit.

Talk to a GP

For advice about your own health, book a GP consult. GP consultations are bulk billed for eligible patients with a valid Medicare card.
