What Is Travel Medicine?
Travel medicine focuses on helping individuals stay healthy and safe during international travel–especially to areas where certain infectious diseases are more common. This may include:
- Vaccinations (required and recommended based on destination)
- Malaria prophylaxis
- Traveler’s diarrhea prevention and treatment
- Motion sickness and altitude sickness medications
- Health counseling for food, water, and insect-borne risks
- Documentation and forms for international travel requirements
We tailor your visit based on your itinerary, medical history, and current health status. Ideally, you should schedule your travel consultation at least 4-6 weeks before departure.
Common Travel Vaccines We Provide
We offer a wide range of vaccines that may be recommended or required for international travel, including:
- Hepatitis A & B
- Typhoid
- Tetanus, Diphtheria, Pertussis (Tdap)
- Meningitis (especially for Hajj or Sub-Saharan Africa)
- MMR (Measles, Mumps, Rubella)
- Polio
