Travel jabs without a GP referral: how it works near Mottingham

Booking travel jabs directly with no GP referral, near Mottingham

You do not need a GP referral for travel jabs. Travel vaccinations are a private service, so you can book directly with our travel clinic in Mottingham and be seen the same or next day. Here is how it works and why so many travellers prefer it.

Why you do not need a referral

A referral is a way of being passed from one service to another. With private travel health there is nothing to pass through, because you come straight to the pharmacy. Our GPhC-registered pharmacists carry out the consultation, give the vaccines, and prescribe and supply travel medication such as malaria tablets, all in the same place. That means no letters, no waiting for an appointment elsewhere, and no delay while your travel date creeps closer.

How the appointment works

You book online or call, and come in for a short travel health consultation. We look at your destination, how long you are away, the time of year and your planned activities, then recommend what fits your trip. Where a vaccine is needed and in stock, we can usually give the first dose there and then, and sort any malaria tablets at the same visit.

Bring any record of vaccines you have had before and a rough outline of your itinerary. It helps us avoid repeating anything you do not need and spend the time on the protection that matters.
