Questions people actually ask

Why do travel vaccine risks vary so much by destination?
Travelling overseas can expose you to diseases that are rare or absent in Australia. The risks vary by destination, duration of travel, accommodation type, and the activities you have planned, which is why a personalised consult matters more than a generic checklist.
What happens at a travel vaccination consult?
Our pharmacist immunisers will review your itinerary, assess your vaccination history, and advise on what's recommended or required for your destination. Most travel vaccines can be administered on the spot, and we'll help you plan timing for multi-dose courses well in advance of departure.
Do I need a referral?
No. Just walk in to our Malvern Road store. Our pharmacist immunisers can advise on and administer travel vaccines without a referral.
How far in advance should I come in?
At least 6 weeks before your departure date.¹ Some vaccines, like Japanese Encephalitis, require multiple doses over several weeks.
Do you administer Yellow Fever vaccines?
Yellow Fever vaccination must be administered at a registered Yellow Fever centre. We can advise on whether it's recommended for your destination and refer you to the nearest registered provider.
Are travel vaccines covered by Medicare or the NIP?
Most travel vaccines are not covered under the NIP and fees apply.+ Some routine vaccines you may be due for as a booster, like influenza# or MMR, may be covered depending on your eligibility. Ask your pharmacist.
Can I just walk in?
Yes. Travel consults are walk-in at our Malvern Road store for now, with the other three locations coming soon. We can advise and give most common vaccines on the spot.* Some vaccines may need to be ordered in advance, call ahead if you're travelling within the next two weeks.
