More Than Just Vaccinations

At Mentone General Practice, our travel medicine services go beyond injections. We also provide:

  • Malaria prevention medication

  • Altitude sickness advice

  • Traveller’s diarrhoea management

  • Safe food and water precautions

  • General travel health checks

  • Certificates for schools, universities, or workplaces

We make sure you leave prepared, informed, and ready for a safe journey.

When Should You Book Your Travel Health Appointment?

We recommend booking your travel health consultation at least 6–8 weeks before departure. Some vaccines require multiple doses over time, and your body needs time to build immunity.

However, it is never too late—if your trip is soon, we can still provide urgent vaccinations and travel advice to reduce your risks.

Please, book with Dr Bahareh Khodaverdian, Dr Jason Ting or Dr Martin Hassabi.

Who Should Visit Our Travel Clinic?

Our Bayside travel vaccination service is suitable for:

  • Holidaymakers

  • Business travellers

  • Students going overseas

  • Families with children

  • Pilgrims travelling for Hajj or Umrah

  • Adventure travellers and volunteers in rural or high-risk regions

Costs of Travel Vaccinations

Travel can be expensive, and so can vaccines. However, the cost of protection is far less than the risk of serious illness abroad. Yellow fever, rabies, or typhoid treatment overseas can be life-threatening and costly. Our doctors will give you a clear outline of fees before treatment so you can make an informed decision.
