In order to assist us to make a full assessment of the potential risks to your health from your planned travel, we would ask that you make a Travel Clinic appointment with our Practice Nurse. Ideally, this appointment should be made around the time of booking your holiday, at least 6 weeks before you travel.

At your appointment we may ask the following questions to help us plan for your trip:-

• When are you departing and for how long?
• Where are you going, including the destinations within a country?
• Where are you staying, e.g. backpacking, camping, hotels?
• Are you planning to undertake any high risk activities?
• Have you taken out travel insurance and have you informed the company of any existing medical condition?
• If female and of child bearing age, is there any possibility you could be pregnant, or are you planning a pregnancy?
• Do you have any medical conditions, or a history of significant medical illness? (these can influence the choice of malaria tablets we recommend)
