Travel medicine
Many students take the opportunity to travel, either during the summer vacation, or because it is a requirement of their course. Equally staff may be travelling internationally, especially to the campuses in Malaysia and China.
Travel is a great opportunity to experience different cultures and environments. The University of Nottingham Health Service want ensure that you remain healthy and protected from important diseases during any trips abroad.
We have developed a comprehensive travel service in association with MASTA, the UK’s leading national travel clinic. Led by Dr Hugh Porter, the team have a wealth of experience in this field and use the MASTA database to ensure accurate and up to date information for all our travellers.
