CityDoc’s Background
CityDoc opened its first location in 2006, in Moorgate, central London, followed by Oxford Circus in 2008. Since this time to meet the demand for local travel vaccinations services, we have expanded across all the major UK towns/cities. The clinical staff are all trained by the CityDoc Medical Director and are supported by a team of experienced travel doctors, to aid our colleagues with the more challenging cases such as multiple background medical issues.
Our clinical staff use Travax ( a highly respected NHS travel resource designed for health care professionals) to view the latest travel health alerts and recommendations for your particularly trip. Our website has been designed to include easy to view summary tables of the vaccine schedules, with the most important details highlighted such as age restrictions and exclusions. Additionally we have developed a comprehensive FAQ section, to answer your common queries. We want our clients to have easy access to information, before deciding to use our service and will continue to update our website accordingly. Additionally if you have a query, please use the enquiries form.

The most serious complications can occur, when the nerves supplying the lungs are affected. The combined vaccine (Revaxis), is only suitable for clients above the age of 10 years of age.
