50 West Hampstead travellers booked this week · Aqua Pharmacy, 59 Mill Ln, London NW6 1NB
Turkey is one of the UK's most popular destinations: Istanbul city breaks, Cappadocia hot air balloon trips, all inclusive resorts on the Aegean and Mediterranean coast at Bodrum, Marmaris and Antalya, and family visits across Anatolia. Trips vary from 4 night city breaks to 2 week beach holidays, so the vaccine pack varies too.
NaTHNaC recommends Hepatitis A for most travellers and Typhoid for anyone staying outside resort areas, eating street food or visiting family. Hepatitis B is recommended for longer stays, healthcare workers, and anyone planning tattoos, piercings, or medical or dental procedures (Turkey is a major hub for cosmetic and dental tourism). Turkey is malaria free, so no antimalarials are needed for current itineraries.
Aqua Travel Clinic in West Hampstead is operated by Aqua Pharmacy (GPhC-registered premises 1123406, owned by Naspram Pharma Limited) under Superintendent Pharmacist Sanjay Mukundkumar Patel (GPhC 2045157). Most Turkey travellers are sorted in a single 15-minute appointment, often using the combined Hep A and Hep B vaccine Twinrix if you need both.

Travel vaccines for Turkey at a glance
Turkey is low risk for serious tropical illness but NaTHNaC recommends Hepatitis A for most travellers, Typhoid for those staying outside resorts, and Hepatitis B for longer stays and anyone considering tattoos, piercings or medical or cosmetic procedures. Turkey is malaria free.
Hepatitis A for Turkey
Hepatitis A is spread through contaminated food and water. Even in all inclusive resorts, NaTHNaC recommends vaccination because of variable hygiene standards at off site restaurants and excursions. One dose protects for around 12 months; two doses six months apart give 25 years of cover.
Typhoid for Turkey
Typhoid is recommended for travellers staying with family, eating street food, or travelling outside main resort areas. A single injection protects for around 3 years.
Hepatitis B for higher risk travel
Hepatitis B is particularly relevant for Turkey because of the large cosmetic and dental tourism sector. If you are considering hair transplants, dental work, cosmetic surgery, tattoos or piercings, NaTHNaC recommends Hep B before travel. The standard course is three doses; accelerated schedules are available for short notice trips.
Twinrix combined Hep A and B
Twinrix combines Hep A and Hep B in a single course of three doses, useful if you need both. A super accelerated schedule (4 doses over 21 days) is available for last minute travel.
Cosmetic and dental tourism in Turkey
If you are travelling to Turkey for treatment, choose a regulated clinic, get a written quote and treatment plan in advance, and ensure Hep B vaccination beforehand. Bring a written summary of any medications you take and allow recovery time before flying home.
Onward travel
Many Turkey itineraries combine with Greek islands, Jordan, Egypt or Morocco. The Hep A and Typhoid core covers all of these; we will plan the full itinerary in one consultation.
