Using guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), our specially trained staff helps travelers of all ages prepare for and enjoy a safe and healthy journey. The Travel Medicine team will tailor services specifically to your current health, the countries you’ll visit and the activities you hope to enjoy while you’re away from home.

We provide vaccinations against infectious diseases that are still prevalent in developing or tropical countries. Once the appropriate immunizations have been administered, travelers are given a Certificate of Vaccination, which is necessary for entry into many foreign countries.
