Travel Clinic FAQs
Here's all the info you need to book a travel clinic appointment in Sheffield.
1. When should I book my travel vaccinations?
You should book your travel vaccination appointment at least 6–8 weeks before your departure. Some vaccines require multiple doses or time to become effective, so early planning ensures full protection.
