What does vaccination recommended mean for travelling to Samoa?

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 Samoa?

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 had my Breast Enlargement surgery over a year ago now and I still cannot stop looking at them. From the very start, my experience at Pall Mall Medical was second to none. The lovely Helen booked my initial consultation and answered and addressed all of my questions and concerns. I was nervous ahead of my consultation but Mr Prasad put me at ease throughout and took the time to explain the procedure in full. I had no qualms in putting my trust in him 100%. I truly felt like a VIP throughout my cosmetic journey. The ward nurse (Amanda) was so lovely and attentive, I would happily go back and do it all over again! 5 stars from me! "

" Was looked after by nurses Steph and Bev and I couldn't praise their service anymore !! Made me feel so comfortable and looked after me so well. I had a breast enlargement by Dr Prasad and both him and the nurses where excellent. Thank you so much !! "

" I visited Pall Mall in Manchester for the second time in order to have a medical check for a foreign visa application. Just like the first time, the service was very efficient and the quality of care was top-notch. Everybody I met was extremely friendly and considerate. Specifically, Sam and Rachel were incredibly attentive and understanding of the (often pedantic) needs of the foreign visa authority, helping me make sure all the documentation was in order."
