I had a fantastic experience at Medway Travel Clinic while getting everything sorted for my trip to South America. The clinic is modern, clean, and well-run, which really helped put me at ease. Booking was simple, and there were plenty of appointment slots to choose from, even at short notice. I was especially impressed that they had all the necessary vaccines in stock, so I could get everything done in one visit. Mandeep was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to explain each vaccine and what to expect, which made the whole process smooth and reassuring. Highly recommended for anyone planning overseas travel!

I cannot fault this service. The whole pharmacy team are very helpful and approachable. Mandeep, the pharmacist dealt with my travel queries and vaccinations. I was very unsure as it was my first time going abroad but he talked me through everything and explained which vaccines I needed. The jabs didn't even hurt! He was amazing. A1 service. 100% recommend. Thank you.

I visited Medway Travel Clinic for my rabies vaccine ahead of my trip to Thailand, and I couldn’t have asked for a better service. The clinic is in a really convenient location with easy parking, and booking an appointment was quick and hassle-free. The pharmacist prescriber was incredibly experienced and clearly very skilled at administering vaccines, the whole process was smooth and painless. They also took the time to explain everything in detail, which made me feel confident and well informed. I’d highly recommend Medway Travel Clinic to anyone preparing for travel.

Cannot recommend Mandeep enough. He is knowledgeable, helpful, and put me at ease. I would definitely go to him in the future - his advice was in depth and his role as a pharmacist prescriber means he can offer more than other pharmacies.

There is one pharmacy here, some very odd opening hours and long lunch break, some parking spaces behind at £2:40 minimum for first hour, if no spaces "walk the gauntlet" through Chatham High Street to get there!!
