NHS vs private route
Start with your GP practice if you have enough time and your destination risk makes hepatitis A relevant. Hepatitis A is commonly treated as an NHS travel vaccine, while hepatitis B for travel is more often private unless there is another clinical or occupational reason.
Private travel clinics are useful when GP appointment timing is too slow, your itinerary is complex, or you need several paid vaccines in one visit. The private route can be faster but costs add up quickly when hepatitis B, rabies or Japanese encephalitis courses are added.
