Travelling abroad can expose you to different health risks depending on your destination, the length of your stay, your planned activities, and your medical history.

At MediCare Pharmacy Group, our pharmacists offer Travel Health consultations. Based on your travel plans and clinical needs, a personalised plan will be developed, which may include vaccinations, antimalarial treatment, and other travel medicines where suitable.

All consultations take place face-to-face in a private room at your chosen MediCare Pharmacy.
