We're Urmston Travel Clinic, based at Davyhulme Pharmacy on Canterbury Road. Pop in for your travel vaccines and advice without trekking into the city centre.
We're a community pharmacy travel clinic on your doorstep in Urmston. From our base at Davyhulme Pharmacy, 179-181 Canterbury Road (M41 0SE), we help neighbours across Urmston, Davyhulme and Flixton get ready for trips of every kind — from a family fortnight in the sun to a long-haul adventure.
