Travel clinic by Delmergate Pharmacy

Travel vaccinations in Kent, trusted since 1986

Vaccines, malaria tablets and travel certificates in Ashford, Chatham and Sevenoaks.

  • Pharmacist-led
  • Prices up front
  • Walk-ins welcome

Each guide covers who it tends to be for, how the course runs, what it costs and what it does not protect you against.

All 17 vaccines
  • Typhoid

    One injection, around three years of cover, and it is the vaccine most often discussed for South Asia, parts of Africa and South America.

    Full course £50

  • Hepatitis A

    The single most commonly given travel vaccine in the UK: one dose covers your trip, and a second within a year takes you to around twenty-five years.

    Full course £120

  • Rabies

    Rabipur or Verorab

    Three doses over three weeks that do not make you immune - they buy you time, which is the whole point where post-bite treatment is days away rather than hours.

    Full course £240

  • Yellow fever

    The only vaccine a border can legally demand to see - one dose, a certificate valid for life, and it must be in your hand ten days before you arrive.

    Full course £80

  • Meningitis ACWY

    One injection, with the certificate Saudi Arabia requires for Hajj and Umrah - and the vaccine for the African meningitis belt in the dry season.

    Full course £80

  • Dengue

    Qdenga

    A newer travel vaccine on a three-month schedule, most clearly worthwhile for people who have had dengue before - and a vaccine we will talk you out of as readily as into.

    Full course £200

How it works

From itinerary to injection in one visit

No booking system, no forms, no waiting for a callback. You ring the clinic, you come in, and you leave with a plan.

  1. Step 1: Tell us the itinerary

    Every country on the route, in order, with dates - including airports you only change planes in. Half the decisions in a travel consultation turn on a transit stop or a single rural week, so the detail is not a formality.

  2. Step 2: A pharmacist assesses you, not your destination

    Your vaccination history, the medicines you take, your medical history, whether you are pregnant or trying to be, and what you will actually be doing out there. Two people on the same flight often need different courses.

  3. Step 3: You see the plan and the price before anything is given

    What is recommended, what is optional, what it costs in total, and how many visits it takes. Nothing is administered until you have agreed to it, and you are free to take the plan away and think about it.

  4. Step 4: Vaccinations, tablets and the paperwork

    Given the same day where the schedule allows, with any certificate issued before you leave, your record written up, and the dates of any follow-up doses in your hand.

What to bring to your appointment

The half of it that is not an injection

Most of what goes wrong on a trip has no vaccine. The consultation is where that gets dealt with - and it is the part a price list cannot show you.

Asked before calling

Including the one everybody worries about: it is almost never too late.

  • How far ahead should I book a travel appointment?

    Six to eight weeks is comfortable and lets any multi-dose course finish before you fly. Four weeks is workable for most itineraries. If you are travelling sooner than that, come in anyway - accelerated schedules exist for several vaccines, and partial protection plus good advice beats neither.

  • Is it too late if I fly next week?

    Almost never. Some vaccines work within days, several have rapid schedules, antimalarials can be started close to departure, and the bite avoidance and food and water advice loses nothing for being given late. The one thing we cannot compress is a yellow fever certificate, which is not valid until ten days after the dose.

  • Do I need an appointment, or can I walk in?

    Call the clinic you want to use. A travel consultation takes longer than a routine pharmacy visit and some vaccines are ordered in rather than held in the fridge, so a booked slot means the stock and the time are both there when you arrive.

  • How much will it cost?

    Every price is published on this site before you book, including the per-tablet antimalarial prices and the certificate charges. What your trip costs depends on which vaccines you need, and you see that total and agree to it before anything is given.

  • Can I get travel vaccines free on the NHS?

    A few are NHS-funded for travel at a GP surgery - typically hepatitis A, typhoid, and diphtheria, tetanus and polio boosters. The rest are private wherever you have them. We will tell you if something on your list is one your GP could give you free, and you are welcome to take that route.
