What Is a Travel Medicine Consultation?
A travel medicine consultation — sometimes called a travel health consultation — is an appointment with a GP or travel health doctor before you travel overseas. During your consultation, your doctor will review your itinerary, assess any destination-specific health risks, discuss recommended and required vaccinations, and provide advice on medications, food and water safety, insect protection, and other travel-related health concerns.
Travel medicine consultations are recommended for all travellers, including those returning to their country of origin, as health risks and vaccination requirements vary significantly between destinations and can change over time. We recommend booking your appointment at least six to eight weeks before your planned departure to allow time for vaccines to take effect.

Who Should See a Travel Doctor Before Travelling?
A travel medicine consultation is recommended for anyone planning travel to international destinations, particularly those travelling to:
- Developing countries or regions with limited healthcare access
- Tropical or subtropical destinations
- Areas with known outbreaks of infectious disease
- High-altitude environments
- Remote or rural locations away from medical facilities
Certain groups are particularly encouraged to seek travel health advice prior to departure, including:
- Infants, young children, and elderly travellers
- Pregnant women
- Immunocompromised individuals or those with chronic health conditions — see our chronic disease management page for information on ongoing health support
- Travellers undertaking long-haul or multi-destination trips
- Humanitarian workers, volunteers, and adventure travellers
When to Book Your Travel Health Appointment
We recommend booking your travel medicine consultation at least six to eight weeks before your departure date. Some vaccines require multiple doses administered over several weeks, and it can take time for immunity to develop after vaccination.
If you are departing sooner, do not delay — contact our clinic on 08 8920 5555 or book online, as our GPs can still provide valuable advice and administer any available vaccines in a shorter timeframe.
