Take the First Step Towards Planning Your Travel Health
Planning to travel overseas? Whether for work, study, or holiday, travel health planning is an important part of your preparation. At Paterson Healthcare, our doctors provide personalised travel health consultations based on individual circumstances and clinical assessment. Our team considers factors such as destination, vaccination history, medical background, travel duration, and planned activities when providing advice on recommended vaccines, preventive medications (such as malaria prophylaxis), and general travel health precautions. Many countries require proof of vaccination or specific health measures, including yellow fever, typhoid, hepatitis, or routine immunisations. We provide up-to-date medical advice to support informed travel health planning prior to departure
