Frequently Asked Questions About Travel Vaccinations

We recommend booking your travel vaccination appointment at least 6 to 8 weeks before your departure date. Some vaccines require multiple doses given over several weeks, and your body needs time to build immunity. However, if you are travelling sooner, please contact us as we can still help with last-minute vaccinations.

No referral is required for travel vaccinations. Simply book an appointment with one of our doctors, who will assess your travel plans and recommend the appropriate vaccines for your destination.

Most travel vaccinations are not covered by Medicare as they are considered elective. However, some routine immunisations such as tetanus and whooping cough for pregnant women may be bulk billed for eligible patients. Please check our fees page for more information.

Please bring your passport, travel itinerary, and any previous vaccination records you have. This helps our doctors provide accurate advice tailored to your specific journey and ensure you receive the correct vaccines.

Yes, we are an accredited Yellow Fever Vaccination centre. This vaccine is not available through many family doctors, but our accreditation allows us to administer this essential vaccine for travellers to parts of Africa and South America.
