Post-Travel Health Screen

On return, our Doctors at Sussex Medical Chambers offer a comprehensive physical examination if required, either at our clinic or on client’s premises. This includes comprehensive tests for possible diseases and ailments, many of which - particularly parasitic diseases such as malaria, bilharzia or giardia, which may have few symptoms in their early stages - can be easily misdiagnosed or entirely missed by those unfamiliar with them.

Prompt diagnosis can lead to rapid, easy and painless treatment of problems which, if left, may develop into serious illnesses, debilitating and difficult to treat, with the road to recovery unnecessarily long and uncomfortable.

We screen for:

• Parasites and worms such as malaria, schistosomiasis (bilharzia) and giardia
• Unusual causes of travel-related diarrhoea such as microsporidia and cyclospora
• Viral infections such as Hepatitis A,B and C, HIV and Dengue Fever

Most problems discovered during the course of screening can be quickly and easily treated. If specialist treatment is required, we will refer the client to the appropriate Consultant.

Following travel, we have a full range of diagnostic and investigative facilities on site, together with over 40 specialist Consultants, an on site laboratory (The Manor Laboratory is on the top floor) to quickly diagnose, manage and treat your medical problems.
