Dedicated to providing outstanding travel vaccination services, our Newcastle Elswick clinic emphasises personalised care, ensuring that each patient receives the attention and service needed to confidently prepare for international travel.

Cholera Vaccination

Cholera is transmitted by drinking contaminated water or eating food contaminated by faeces, such a shellfish. Person to person contact can occur where there is poor hygiene. The cholera vaccine is safe and effective vaccine for those who at increased risk of contracting this potentially life threatening illness.

Diphtheria Tetanus Polio (DTP) Vaccination

Diphtheria, Tetanus and Polio can be effectively immunised against through the three-in-one DTP vaccine. These illnesses have been associated with significant health complications and, in severe cases, can lead to fatalities.

Hepatitis B Vaccination

Hepatitis B is a highly transmissible infection that can result in liver failure and cancer. Fortunately, safeguarding oneself from this infection is achievable through the Hepatitis B vaccine. This vaccine is especially crucial for individuals with HIV and other autoimmune diseases.

Japanese Encephalitis Vaccination

Japanese encephalitis is a potentially fatal viral infection affecting the brain, transmitted to humans through the bite of an infected Culex mosquito. As there is no specific cure for the disease, vaccination is recommended.

Tick-borne Encephalitis (TBE) Vaccination

Tick-borne encephalitis results in a serious infection of the central nervous system, affecting both the brain and spinal cord, potentially leading to complications such as meningitis. Individuals travelling to countries with a risk of TBE should contemplate getting vaccinated.

Meningitis ACWY Vaccination

Guard yourself against four varieties of meningococcal bacteria, known to trigger meningitis and septicemia. Strongly advised for individuals on the verge of commencing university and for those embarking on international travel.

Meningitis B Vaccine

Meningitis B is a life threatening infection of the protective membranes that surround the spinal cord (meninges) and the brain. It is most common in babies, young children, teenagers and young adults but can affect anyone.

Hepatitis A Vaccination

Hepatitis A is an extremely contagious virus that can lead to chronic liver disease and in severe cases, death. Hepatitis A is commonly spread through contaminated food and water, making it strongly recommended for many adults planning to travel to specific countries to receive the vaccine.

Typhoid Vaccination

Typhoid fever is a highly contagious bacterial infection resulting from inadequate hygiene practices and the consumption of contaminated water. Vaccination is available to those at risk of Typhoid.

Dengue Fever Vaccination

Dengue fever is a serious viral infection transmitted through bites from (day feeding) Aedes mosquitoes carrying the virus. QDenga is an innovative travel vaccine designed to prevent dengue fever.
