Travel Health Advice

Another service offered to you at your GP surgery (primary care practice) is advice and immunisation before you go to another country. While you are likely to have the immunisations needed to live in New Zealand, there may be other injections you need to protect yourself before going for example to Africa or South America. In some places you will need protection from rabies or malaria. Yellow fever vaccinations are only available at approved centres; please click here to view the centres in New Zealand. Your doctor will be able to tell you what diseases you will need to be protected from in any named country and advise you on other medical matters. 

The Tamaki Family Health Centre is an approved Yellow Fever Vaccination Centre. If you have been seen by a doctor at another clinic and are recommended to come to the Tamaki Family Centre for your travel vaccinations, you will need to make an appointment for a travel consultation with Dr Clark before any vaccinations are given. Please bring a record of your past vaccinations with you.
