THE RYCOTE PRACTICE - AN NHS ORGANISATION
TRAVEL CLINIC (INCLUDING YELLOW FEVER)

The Travel Clinic is run by our nursing team.

In order to give you flexibility, we do not run a set clinic. Please note that we need sufficient notice to arrange your immunisations and we cannot be held responsible for problems or difficulties arising from late bookings.

Depending on your individual requirements, you may need immunisations up to 6 months in advance of travel (for example hepatitis B).

For most routine travel we need you to tell us at least 6 weeks before the travel date.

We request you fill in a travel form available below. It can also be collected from reception. This helps us tailor your individual requirements and perform a proper risk assessment based on the latest NHS advice.

Once we have received your form we will contact you to arrange an appointment. We need a current daytime contact number for this. Please note that many immunisations for travel are not covered by the NHS and will be charged for. Malaria tablets are also given as a private prescription.

Yellow Fever Immunisations

The Rycote Practice is an approved Yellow Fever Centre. We offer this to our registered patients and also to patients registered with a GP elsewhere.

If you are not registered at The Rycote Practice we need a separate form completed and signed when you come for your appointment. This can be downloaded here or picked up from our reception desk on arrival.

You must then book a private appointment with one of our nursing team.

Yellow fever certificates are issued upon receipt of payment. Yellow fever exemption certificates are also available at the practice (chargeable).

BCG Immunisation

Please note we do not offer BCG immunisation at this practice.
