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

" Just how nice the staff were, made you feel comfortable."

K.Raper, August 2014

" I had my breast augmentation with Mr El Gawad and I'm very happy with my results! I'm glad I have trusted in his judgment, even at first, I had a few misconceptions about the procedure, but with a lot of patience and calm he explained everything wich concerned me.. He is an amazing doctor, very careful, thoughtful and talented! The whole experience was much more enjoyable than I expected, thanks to the friendly and very well trained staff; they makes you feel safe and like being at home. Thank you so much for everything!"

" The treatment was completed by a plastic surgeon which made me feel confident. I had botox in two places and the result is great."

S.Drainey, July 2014

" The reception staff were very welcoming and helpful. The doctor I saw was thorough with my examination and completely reassured me about my condition. I would not hesitate in using Pall Mall Medical in the future if need be."
