Staff travelling abroad on College business will be seen at a time convenient to them as usual, and will always take precedence over holiday travellers. Appropriate malarial prophylaxis is now available from the Occupational Health Service and this, as well as the vaccinations, will continue to be at cost price for UCL business travellers. The Department of Health decided several years ago that holiday vaccinations should no longer be available to patients from their General Practitioners at NHS prices. Many GP's now have on site Travel Clinics that their patients may prefer to use. The UCL Travel Clinic may still be competively priced and certainly more convenient.
Staff are of course free to choose whichever provider of travel medicine they prefer.
This service is not available to students, including medical students on electives or other students on field courses. They should use the Royal Free Travel Clinic, or the Gower Place Practice if they are registered there.
