Salford Medical Centre provides travel health advice and travel vaccination services for registered patients preparing for international travel, including holidays, study trips, work placements and other journeys abroad. The service supports travellers by assessing health risks, reviewing vaccination requirements and providing appropriate immunisations and preventative guidance in line with travel destinations and individual health needs.
Travel services are delivered within an NHS general practice setting.
Salford Medical Centre operates its travel health services from 194–198 Langworthy Road, Salford, M6 5PP, serving registered patients in Salford and surrounding areas.
A private consultation room is used for travel health assessments and vaccinations, ensuring confidentiality and an appropriate clinical environment. The practice is accessible by public transport, with nearby on-street parking available.
Travel health appointments begin with a pre-travel risk assessment, allowing clinicians to determine appropriate vaccinations and advice based on destination, trip duration, planned activities, vaccination history and medical background.
As an NHS GP practice, the centre provides travel vaccines that are routinely available under NHS eligibility where appropriate and offers guidance or prescriptions for vaccines not covered by NHS provision.
Services typically include:
Travel risk assessment
Review of routine immunisations
Hepatitis A vaccination (where NHS eligible)
Typhoid vaccination (where NHS eligible)
Tetanus, Diphtheria & Polio (Td/IPV booster)
Travel health advice and prevention guidance
Support with private prescriptions for additional vaccines if required
As an NHS practice, pricing depends on NHS eligibility. Some travel vaccines are provided free of charge for registered patients, while others may require private payment or prescription charges.

Travel appointments must be booked in advance through the practice reception team. Patients are advised to complete a travel risk assessment prior to their appointment and to allow sufficient time before travel, as some vaccines require multiple doses or advance scheduling.
Early booking is strongly recommended.
Travel vaccinations and advice are provided by trained practice nurses and clinical staff within an NHS-regulated environment. Vaccines are stored and handled in accordance with cold-chain requirements, and consultations follow recognised travel medicine guidance.
In addition to immunisations, Salford Medical Centre provides general travel health advice, including:
Malaria risk awareness and prevention guidance
Insect-bite avoidance strategies
Food and water hygiene advice
General travel health and safety considerations
This supports patients in reducing avoidable health risks while travelling abroad.
Salford Medical Centre operates as an NHS GP travel health provider, supporting registered patients with routine travel vaccinations and advice. Vaccines not covered under NHS provision may require private arrangements or prescriptions.
