Your travel clinic near St John’s Wood
Residents, families and professionals in St John’s Wood can access personalised travel vaccinations and malaria advice nearby at Hampstead Travel Clinic. Based inside Allchin Pharmacy on Englands Lane, our clinic is convenient from St John’s Wood High Street, Avenue Road, Wellington Road and the surrounding NW8 neighbourhood.
Travel health advice should reflect the details of your journey. Our pharmacists assess the countries and regions on your route, travel dates, accommodation, activities, medical history and previous vaccination record. A short business visit may need a different approach from a safari, family trip, cruise, volunteering placement or extended journey through several countries.
Where possible, arrange your consultation six to eight weeks before departure so there is time to complete any multi-dose courses. Travelling at short notice? Please contact us anyway. Useful vaccinations and malaria-prevention options may still be available, with same-day appointments offered when capacity allows.

Vaccines commonly discussed
Your needs depend on the countries you visit, season, accommodation and activities. During your consultation we will check reliable destination guidance and your vaccine history before making recommendations. Common discussions include hepatitis A and B, typhoid, tetanus, polio, rabies and Japanese encephalitis.
A traveller staying in a city hotel may need different advice from someone working in rural areas, trekking, handling animals or making an extended multi-country journey. Requirements can also change when you cross borders or travel during a particular season. We therefore recommend bringing your complete route, even for short stopovers. The consultation is an opportunity to discuss food and water hygiene, insect-bite avoidance and other practical precautions alongside vaccination.
What to bring
Bring any vaccination records you have, plus a list of the countries and regions you will visit. Dates, accommodation type and planned activities are useful too.
Tell the pharmacist about regular medicines, allergies, pregnancy, immune conditions or previous vaccine reactions so your consultation can be handled safely.
