TRAVEL MEDICINE
- Home
When you’re on vacation, you want to relax, unwind, and enjoy the sights, sounds, and tastes all around you. Most destinations, especially exotic locales, pose certain health risks. Let us inform and educate you, and provide you the exact care you need so that you can make those memories without interruption or inconvenience.
Your safety and the safety of your family is our first concern. When you’re at TICP, we’ll provide you with the latest up-to-date information, like travel advisories, potential health threats, and drug-resistance patterns specific to your itinerary. We’ll explain the available vaccinations, help you separate the necessary from the optional, and cater our recommendations to the level of care you want and need.
DURING YOUR TRAVEL CONSULTATION, THE CLINICIAN WILL EVALUATE:
- Your vaccination history
- The activities you and your traveling companions have planned
- Your medical history and current medical status
- Your travel itinerary – countries and locations you will be visiting
After careful evaluation and discussion with you, the clinician will make recommendations for any vaccinations that would aim to keep you safe and healthy while traveling. And you will get to make the decision about any vaccines you choose to receive – our goal is to assist you in making the best decisions for your trip!
If you’re pregnant, have pre-existing medical condiditions such as a compromised immune system or chronic illness, or are traveling with small children, we’ll help you prepare. We will minimize the stress and risks of travel, and even give you a travel folder with all the information you need for you and your loved ones to stay safe and healthy.
