This real-world perspective means your consultation goes beyond a standard checklist. Matt understands the destinations you’re visiting, what to watch out for, what vaccinations matter most, and how to keep you genuinely safe throughout your journey. Whether you’re heading to a popular tourist destination or somewhere more remote and adventurous, you’re in experienced hands.

Frequently asked questions
How far in advance should I book a travel health appointment?
Ideally, you should book your travel health consultation at least 6-8 weeks before departure, as some vaccinations require multiple doses over several weeks. However, we can still help you if your trip is imminent – same-day appointments are available.
Are travel vaccinations available on the NHS?
Many vaccinations including Yellow Fever, Rabies, and Japanese Encephalitis, are not routinely provided on the NHS. Our private travel health clinic in Hailsham offers fast, convenient access to the full range of travel vaccines.
Can you prescribe antimalarials at the clinic?
Yes. Our prescribers can prescribe antimalarial medication on-site during your consultation. They’ll recommend the most appropriate option based on your destination, health history, and the duration of your trip.
Do you offer travel health services for groups or businesses?
Yes. We offer corporate and group travel health packages for businesses, schools, and organisations across East Sussex. Please call us on 0300 304 6260 or contact us to discuss your group’s requirements.
What if I feel unwell after returning from travel?
We offer post-travel health consultations at our Hailsham clinic. If you’ve returned from abroad and are experiencing fever, stomach problems, skin conditions, or any other symptoms that developed during or after your trip, please contact us promptly.
