Questions people ask about North Harrow
How many doses of rabies vaccine do I need and how long does the course take?
Pre-exposure rabies is a three dose course. The standard schedule runs over 21 to 28 days, and shorter schedules exist for travellers with less time, decided at the consultation. Rabies is spread by bites, scratches and licks from infected mammals, so urgent medical care is still needed after any exposure abroad.
Can I fit travel vaccines around a working day in North Harrow?
Usually yes. The clinic is about a mile south of North Harrow on the A404, so a 20 to 30 minute appointment fits into a lunch break or the gap after the school run. Metropolitan line commuters can also stop at Harrow-on-the-Hill on the way home.
How far is Harrow Clinics from North Harrow station?
About a mile. It is one stop on the Metropolitan line to Harrow-on-the-Hill and then a short walk up to 106 High Street, or roughly 5 minutes by car south on Pinner Road and Station Road. Parking is available in the town centre below the hill.
I travel for work at short notice, what can I do in advance?
Build a baseline. Hepatitis A, typhoid, hepatitis B and tetanus, diphtheria and polio cover most frequent business itineraries, and rabies pre-exposure is worth discussing if you visit remote sites. Getting these done between trips means a later destination check is quick.
Which vaccines do I need for a work trip to West Africa?
Many West African countries require a yellow fever certificate for entry, and hepatitis A, typhoid, hepatitis B, meningitis ACWY and rabies are commonly considered alongside malaria prevention advice. The exact list depends on the country and your itinerary, checked against current NaTHNaC guidance at the consultation.
What is the difference between a standard and an accelerated course?
A standard course spaces doses over weeks or months for the longest protection, while an accelerated course compresses them for travellers leaving sooner. Not every vaccine has a licensed accelerated option, and a booster is often advised later. The pharmacist works to your departure date.
Can I get malaria prevention advice as well as vaccines?
Yes. There is no malaria vaccine for travellers, so the consultation covers bite avoidance and whether antimalarial tablets are appropriate for your route and season. Any tablets are supplied only after a consultation and a suitability check.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions from Harrow travellers.
No. Anyone can self-refer to a private travel clinic. Book directly online or call 020 8869 1200.
Meningitis ACWY (Menveo) is mandatory for the Saudi Arabia visa and must have been given within the last 5 years. We administer it and issue the certificate the same visit. Hepatitis A, Typhoid and seasonal flu are also worth considering depending on your itinerary.
Ideally 4 to 6 weeks before travel, especially for vaccines that need multiple doses like Rabies or Japanese Encephalitis. For Hajj jabs and most single-dose vaccines, same-week appointments are fine. Even at short notice most travel vaccines still help.
It depends on where you are going, how long, your activities, age and medical history. We do not sell a generic package, every recommendation is based on your itinerary against current NaTHNaC guidance. The pre-travel consultation is included.
Some are. Combined Tetanus, Diphtheria and Polio, Hepatitis A and Typhoid are NHS-funded for certain destinations through GP practices. Yellow Fever, Rabies, Hajj jabs, Japanese Encephalitis, Hepatitis B for tourism and others are private. If you have time it is worth asking your GP about the NHS-funded ones first.
Yes. Most travel vaccines are licensed from 1 year of age, Yellow Fever from 9 months. We work out the right schedule for each child.
