Why Edge Hill travellers choose us
We share the L7 postcode with Edge Hill. The clinic sits minutes from the Royal Liverpool Hospital, Paddington Village and the university halls, and the people who walk through the door from this side of the city are mostly students booking electives and gap years, and hospital staff fitting a vaccination around a shift.
On distance: from most of Edge Hill we're about half a mile in a straight line — ten minutes on foot for most people, less from the halls. That figure is straight-line distance rather than drive time. Traffic on the approach into the Georgian Quarter varies a lot by hour, so if you're driving, give yourself a bit of margin.
Worth knowing what else is available before you book. Your GP practice can give some travel vaccines on the NHS — tetanus, diphtheria and polio, and for some destinations hepatitis A and typhoid — but practices usually want several weeks' notice and don't hold the private vaccines. Well Travelled Clinics at the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine is the city's best-known travel service and has real specialist depth, though its sessions run to set weekday afternoons. We're a pharmacist-led clinic: you see an Independent Prescriber, you can usually be seen the same day on two hours' notice, and vaccines, certificates and malaria prevention tablets are all handled in one visit.
One pattern we've seen from running our own search advertising across Liverpool for eighteen months: nearly one in five people searching for travel vaccines in this city searches for a named clinic rather than a vaccine or a destination. People here start with a building. That's fine — but check opening times and lead times before you settle on one, because in practice that is what decides whether you get vaccinated before you fly, not the name over the door.
The clinic is run by GPhC-registered pharmacists — Ibraheim Mohammed (2232900), Pharmacist Manager, and Muneer Saleh (2078940), Independent Prescriber — at Chemist Cares, 37 Myrtle Street, registered pharmacy premises GPhC 1114685. No GP referral is needed and the consultation is free when you have your vaccines with us. We hold every major travel vaccine on site — hepatitis A and B, typhoid, rabies, dengue, Japanese encephalitis, tick-borne encephalitis, chikungunya, meningitis ACWY, cholera and whooping cough — and because an Independent Prescriber runs the clinic, malaria prevention tablets are prescribed and dispensed in the same visit.
Everything you need in one appointment.

Edge Hill is our home district — the clinic sits in the same L7 postcode, a short walk from the Royal Liverpool Hospital, Paddington Village and the university halls. That makes us the nearest travel clinic for a very particular crowd: medical and health students heading out on overseas electives, hospital staff and researchers with work travel, and students in halls planning gap-year routes. If your placement paperwork asks for vaccination evidence, we can usually sort the jabs and the documentation in one visit.
Travel vaccines in Liverpool: what you need to know
Liverpool generates every kind of trip: university electives and fieldwork, families flying long-haul to visit relatives — riskier than package holidays, because you live like a local for weeks — Hajj and Umrah pilgrimages, and cruises and flights out of the city's own terminal and airport. A good consultation starts with the itinerary, not the vaccine fridge. At our Liverpool travel clinic the assessment follows NaTHNaC country guidance and Fit for Travel, and it's led by a pharmacist Independent Prescriber, so prescription-only antimalarials are handled in-house.
Common destinations
Electives and backpacking routes through South and Southeast Asia usually call for hepatitis A and typhoid, with rabies a serious consideration for anyone working in clinical settings or spending weeks in rural areas — animal exposure is a real elective risk. Japanese encephalitis joins the list for longer rural stays in season. Pilgrims need meningitis ACWY for the Saudi visa — see the NaTHNaC Hajj and Umrah factsheet — administered with its certificate in one visit. For Africa and the Caribbean we build a malaria plan, prescribing and dispensing tablets such as Maloff Protect on the day, and we advise on yellow fever entry requirements for your route as part of the consultation. The rest of the range is on our vaccines page.
NHS or private?
If you have several weeks in hand, your GP can provide a free tetanus–diphtheria–polio booster and, for some destinations, hepatitis A and typhoid — the NHS travel vaccinations guide sets out which. Rabies, Hajj meningitis ACWY, Japanese encephalitis and hepatitis B for travel are private everywhere, and our clinical decisions follow the UKHSA Green Book. See our booking page for current rates.
