Planning for Traveling Abroad:

• If you know that you will be travel abroad, it is recommended to schedule an appointment with a

   travel clinic a few months in advance. This assures that you will be able to receive the recommended

   vaccines or required vaccines before travel. Your initial travel consultation appointment will last

   around 45 minutes and include the necessary immunizations, safety and security information, insect

   protection, food and water precautions, and if needed antimalarial medications. You may need to

   schedule additional appointments to complete vaccination series such as Hepatitis A or Hepatitis B.
 
   The travel clinic is for ages 13 and over.

 

Our travel clinic services include:

• Individual consultation with travel nurse who will review your health history and individual needs

   based on your itinerary.

 

• Provide you with education on required or recommended vaccinations, safety and security

   precautions, and other health risk associated with your itinerary.

 

• Administer CDC-recommended vaccinations and prescribe antimalarial medications.

 

Billing and Insurance:

• Payment for travel consultation and immunizations are due at time of services.

• Please be advised, that many insurance companies do not cover or reimburse for travel medicine

   expenses. It is advised to call your insurance company ahead of scheduling a travel appointment to

   verify if they will cover travel expenses.
