Travel Clinic in Old Swan

Travel clinic in Old Swan

Old Swan runs on Prescot Road — the long, practical shopping stretch where the neighbourhood gets things done — and we think travel vaccination should be exactly that kind of job: booked like an errand, finished in half an hour, ticked off the list. The clinic is a straight 10–12 minute run down the A57 and Kensington from the Prescot Road shops, with on-street parking nearby at our end, and same-day appointments if the holiday countdown got away from you.

Travel vaccines in Liverpool: what you need to know

Liverpool is a travelling city — students leave on electives and gap years from both universities, families make long visits to relatives overseas, pilgrims prepare for Hajj and Umrah, and cruise ships and John Lennon Airport carry the rest. Different trips, different risks: a month living with family abroad needs different cover from a week in a resort. Every consultation at our Liverpool travel clinic is built on NaTHNaC's country pages and Fit for Travel, not a one-size checklist.

Common destinations

Package favourites — Turkey, Egypt, Tunisia — mostly call for hepatitis A, sometimes with typhoid. Asia long-hauls step it up: hepatitis A and typhoid as the base, rabies for longer or more rural trips, Japanese encephalitis where region and season warrant it. Pilgrims need meningitis ACWY for the Saudi visa — vaccine and certificate in the same visit; see NaTHNaC's Hajj and Umrah factsheet. For Africa and the Caribbean we sort the malaria plan — tablets including Maloff Protect dispensed on the day — and advise on yellow fever entry requirements for your route as part of the consultation. Some itineraries also justify the cholera vaccine; the full list is on our vaccines page.

NHS or private?

Given enough notice, your GP can provide a free tetanus–diphtheria–polio booster and, for some destinations, hepatitis A and typhoid — the NHS travel vaccinations guide shows which. Rabies, Hajj meningitis ACWY, Japanese encephalitis and hepatitis B for travel are private everywhere. We work to the UKHSA Green Book; current rates are on the booking page.
