MASTA Travel Clinic

They do travel vaccinations.
They’re probably not the cheapest, but they are pretty quick (in and out in ten minutes), and they also give you a long printed report on all the places you’re going. It has the latest information on the various health and security risks. For example, did you know that there’s just been a cholera outbreak in Phnom Penh? That knowledge is the joy that awaits you at the Masta clinic.

This is sort of a weird thing to review, but I needed some jabs for an upcoming trip to southern Africa. I found the administrative staff here very friendly, and I hardly had to wait at all to see the nurse. She was friendly, professional, and efficient. She was also very skilled at giving the jabs, and they hardly hurt at all (if you think this is a ridiculous thing to say, you’ve never had the unfortunate experience of being given a jab from a less skilled nurse). She answered all my questions and arranged the next visit for the next round of shots. Maybe it’s silly to be impressed by this level of service, which one might just «expect,» but I found this to be a wholly pleasant experience doing something that I otherwise don’t really enjoy.

If you can’t be bothered to arrange an appointment with your GP, don’t have a regular GP or just don’t trust your GP for specialist advice (not inconceivable), MASTA is an excellent alternative for getting your travel meds/​vaccinations. A private network of nurse-​led immunisation centres, MASTA travel clinics offer individual consultations followed up by any vaccinations or drugs you need for your trip. I’ve found the staff — at this branch at least — to be consistent in both their expert knowledge and friendliness.
