We endeavour to keep our cost of vaccinations as
low as possible and only stock them as a
convenience to our clients, to reduce the number of
visits and also to try and reduce your costs. You can
always ask for a prescription for the required
vaccination and take this to a pharmacy of your
choice.
Prices may vary, you should ask for current prices at
the time of booking. The consultation will also give
you a clear idea of costs for future visits
We are also happy to speak to groups planning trips,

clinic will send you a questionnaire that will
help us tailor our advice specifically to your
needs. We will then schedule an initial visit
with you to discuss this advice, what vaccines
are recommended and if any are mandatory
for that location. We will also work to help
you identify and reduce potential health risks
while on your trip. At the conclusion of that
first visit you will leave with an agreed,
written, action plan to help you better enjoy
your trip.
Niverville Medical Clinic was started almost 10
yrs ago by Drs Chris & Mairi Burnett, two family
physicians who moved to Manitoba in the 90’s.
Both have travelled widely and worked in India,
DRC (Africa) and Albania, before settling in
rural Manitoba with their 3 boys. Both took their
training , and diploma, in Tropical Medicine and
Hygiene at the Leopold Institute in Antwerp,
Belgium. Dr Chris has continued with an active
interest in travel health and is now formally
launching this travel health service for our
region, with the cooperation of Southern Health.
We will also be assisted by a nurse, trained in
public health, funded by the clinic, to give what
is expected to be, quality and comprehensive
advice from our collective experience .
There will be times, rarely, when your needs
surpass the expertise of the clinic and we may
then offer to refer you to a specialist in
Infectious Diseases, in Winnipeg
