Our Vaccinations & Services
We offer a variety of vaccinations to protect you against diseases you may encounter while traveling. Below is a list of the vaccinations we provide, along with detailed information about each one:
Altitude Sickness
Altitude sickness can occur when you travel to high altitudes, typically above 2,500 meters. It can cause symptoms like headaches, nausea, and dizziness. Our clinic offers medication to help prevent and treat altitude sickness, ensuring you stay comfortable during your high-altitude travels.
Cholera
Cholera is a bacterial infection that can cause severe diarrhea and dehydration. It is usually spread through contaminated water. The cholera vaccine is highly recommended for travellers to areas with poor sanitation and limited access to clean water.
Diphtheria/Tetanus/Polio
This combined vaccine protects against three serious diseases: diphtheria, tetanus, and polio. It is essential for travellers to certain parts of the world where these diseases are still prevalent.
Dengue Fever
The dengue fever vaccine helps protect against this mosquito-borne viral infection. Dengue fever can cause severe flu-like symptoms and, in some cases, lead to severe complications.
Hepatitis A
Hepatitis A is a viral infection that affects the liver and is spread through contaminated food and water. The hepatitis A vaccine is recommended for travellers to areas where the infection is common.
Hepatitis B
Hepatitis B is a serious liver infection caused by the hepatitis B virus. It is spread through contact with infected blood and bodily fluids. The hepatitis B vaccine is crucial for travellers who may be at risk of exposure.
Hepatitis A + B
The combined hepatitis A and B vaccine offers protection against both viruses. This is an excellent option for travellers who need to be immunised against both infections.
Japanese Encephalitis
Japanese encephalitis is a viral brain infection spread by mosquitoes. It is found in rural areas of Asia. The vaccine is highly recommended for travellers spending time in affected regions, especially if visiting rural areas or planning long stays.
Jet Lag
Jet lag occurs when your internal body clock is disrupted by crossing multiple time zones. Our clinic provides advice and medication to help you manage and reduce the effects of jet lag, ensuring a more pleasant travel experience.
Malaria
Malaria is a serious disease transmitted by mosquitoes. It can cause fever, chills, and flu-like symptoms. We offer a range of antimalarial medications to protect you during your travels to malaria-endemic areas.
Meningitis ACWY
The meningitis ACWY vaccine protects against four strains of the meningococcal bacteria. Meningitis can cause severe infections of the brain and spinal cord. This vaccine is particularly important for travellers to certain parts of Africa and for those attending the Hajj or Umrah pilgrimages.
MMR
The MMR vaccine protects against measles, mumps, and rubella. These diseases can have serious health implications, and vaccination is essential for travellers who may be exposed to these infections.
Period Delay
For travellers looking to delay their period for convenience or personal reasons, we offer medication that can safely postpone menstruation. This service allows you to enjoy your travels without the worry of menstrual discomfort.
Rabies
Rabies is a deadly virus spread through the bite or scratch of an infected animal. The rabies vaccine is recommended for travellers to areas where rabies is common, especially if engaging in outdoor activities or working with animals.
Tick-borne Encephalitis
