What does vaccination recommended mean for travelling to Maldives?

While it isn't a requirement to pass border control and customs when you enter the country, given the presence of the particular disease in the country, you may want to protect yourself from the risk of contracting an illness while you visit. Being protected is better than becoming ill while abroad.

Also depending upon your plans for your destination and your accommodation plans, you may benefit from a vaccination as a preventative measure.

For example, if you intend to visit local farms, isolated sections, intend to stay outside of a hotel environment, you may benefit from the protection of a vaccination as your risk of contracting certain diseases and illnesses increases.

What does 'sometimes recommended' mean for travelling to Maldives?

If you have travelled from an area where a particular vaccination was required, you may require that vaccination for your next destination also (eg, Yellow Fever when travelling from a previous Yellow Fever area).

What our patients say

" I came to this clinic recently for a number of appointments. Firstly to see a GP - Dr McCulloch, who was amazing! What a lovely doctor. Ron referred me to have some blood tests done and once the results came back on the same day (wow!) I was advised to see a specialist - Mr Maiti, who again was amazing. Mr Maiti did a more thorough examination, including an ultrasound scan (on the same day as the appointment) and reassured me that everything was ok To be honest all I wanted was peace of mind as when the blood results came back high i was scared. I was told these bloods being high is completely normal and nothing to worry about as the scan confirmed I was ok Each appointment was booked promptly and efficiently. Pricing was reasonable and customer service was excellent (I think Sam and Sara?). I was seen by 3 people within the same week. amazing. It would have taken weeks if not months on the NHS I have not been private before but my brother convinced me after I was so worried. I am so pleased Would recommend Pall Mall and Dr Ron and Mr Maiti to everyone!"

" "I had the breast augmentation surgery and all I can say is "wow". I am over the moon with the results. From start to finish Mr A EL Gawad has been amazing. He provided lots of information at the initial consultation and asked me to think about it before deciding. As I booked the operation 6 weeks in advance he wanted to see me just before the appointment date to make sure I was happy to still go ahead and if I had any more questions. Before the appointment I was able to email him directly and he always responded promptly to any questions I had. On the day of my surgery he put me at ease. All the staff he worked with were so nice and made me feel relaxed even though they knew how nervous I was. The evening after the surgery he called me at home to check how I was doing. This is the 3rd time I have had plastic surgery and I can honestly say I have never had this level of service. I am so please with the results. I have had minimal pain since the operation. Although I am still swollen the results look amazing as they are in proportion. I know the implant he helped me pick is actually perfect for my frame. After doing a lot of research I can honestly say I never expected the results to be as good as they are. I am truly grateful to him for the fantastic job he has done. From start to finish the whole experience has been amazing. I would recommend Mr A EL Gawad to anyone. I have used other private hospitals for surgery and I am a nurse therefore I know the overall experience and levels of service has been outstanding.""

" Lovely people, made me feel relaxed, thank you all"

Smethurst, Newton-le-Willows

" "At the age of 49 I was fed up with what I can only describe as extra skin and tissue that hung from my stomach toward the top of my thighs. This was not about looking thinner it was about getting rid of the bulge that showed through my clothing. No gym class or diet was ever going to sort this out. I had an abdominoplasty to sort out this problem. Dr El Gawad was very helpful and very honest about what needed to be done. I felt very comfortable dealing with him and was amazed that Mr EL Gawad contacted me directly. The staff were professional and caring and the anaesthetist was extremely well qualified, very confident and knowledgeable. Mr El Gawad and all the staff were lovely. I would have no problem recommending Mr EL Gawad and the clinic.""
