Travel Medicine (not Yellow fever)

The Borchardt Medical Centre has nurses who are fully trained in giving expert travel health advice.

If you are travelling abroad, be it for business or pleasure, our nurses will ensure you and your family are fully protected during your stay. We require 4 weeks notice to guarantee an appointment with our Practice Nurse to ensure you are protected.

Non-urgent advice:

Please make an appointment several weeks before travelling abroad if possible as some immunisations need more than one injection – we cannot emphasis this enough. We regularly have people who are travelling the next day who we cannot safely help.

Please make an appointment on the front desk for travel clinic.

Smoking Cessation

Please make an appointment on the front desk for smoking cessation clinic. Get an idea of your options here.

Minor Surgery

These sessions are done by Dr Murray-Brown, Dr Smith and Dr Jackson. Please book in with them for a regular appointment if you have any concerning lumps or skin lesions. Suspicious lesions will get referred elsewhere as per NICE guidelines.
