Private Travel and Vaccination Clinic in Canterbury

In a handy central Canterbury location with ample parking we offer a convenient solution to your travel needs.

Our travel health nurses provide tailored advice about all aspects of travel health. Ensure you are protected against diseases such as rabies, yellow fever, typhoid and cholera by getting the recommended vaccinations for your area of travel.

You will be provided with a record of your vaccination, including a certificate, if it is required.

Malaria advice

If you are travelling to a region where the malaria risk is high our nurse may advise that you take anti-malarial tablets. It is important that you take these tablets as instructed so that they are effective. The risk of malaria varies, depending on the destination and the person travelling. Preventative measures against mosquito bites should not be overlooked and are the best course of defence against malaria.

Accessing private healthcare is easy, whether you choose to pay directly or use private medical insurance.

If you are paying for yourself, we can usually offer an upfront cost which you can then choose to pay in full or access one of our easy payment options.

If you have insurance, we can arrange direct settlement with your insurance provider, although you should check in advance to see if your treatment is covered. For more information, visit our private medical insurance page.
