This is a question
Passport Health is
uniquely qualified to
answer. Our goal is to
educate you on not just
the vaccines you may need,
but about all of the risks
you may encounter.
Disease, illness, crime
and injury happen
unexpectedly even to the
most experienced traveler.
We use a variety of
resources, including the
Centers for
Disease Control (CDC),
World Health Organization
(WHO) and the US
Department of State
so we can stay abreast of
the latest developments in
travel medicine and safe
travel.
For the international
traveler it is important
to note there are both
recommended and
required
vaccines. Recommended
vaccines are intended
to protect travelers from
illness in other parts of
the world and to prevent
the importation of
infectious diseases into
the United States.
Required vaccines,
such as Yellow Fever, are
vaccines the country you
are visiting requires for
entrance. They do not want
you to import these
infectious diseases.
No matter where you are traveling, you should know that you will be exposed to certain organisms that could make you severely ill; perhaps even kill you. As a new or even experienced international traveler you should be educated about the environment you'll be visiting. Ideally, you should schedule your appointment with a Passport Health Travel Medicine Specialist 4-6 weeks prior to your departure date. However, we will always accommodate last minute travelers.
As a one-stop travel medicine clinic, Passport Health carries all travel vaccines necessary to protect you on your vacation, safari, mission trip, study abroad semester, business trip, or inter-country adoption. We can also provide antimalarial and antidiarrheal medications. And, with our variety of hard-to-find travel products in stock, you will be fully prepared for whatever challenges arise during your journey.
