What you get at FirstMed Travel Clinic
Our doctor evaluates your overall health, medical history, and any pre-existing conditions to provide tailored recommendations for your trip.
We review your vaccination history and administer any necessary vaccines to protect you from destination-specific diseases.
Our travel medicine specialist can recommend preventive measures and medications to protect you against illness or injury while you are abroad.
Our travel medicine specialists will advise you on what medicines to take with you on your trip. They can prescribe medications for travel-related illnesses, such as malaria prevention, altitude sickness, and traveler’s diarrhea.
Consult with our doctors after your trip if you have any health concerns that may have arisen during your travels.
If you’re traveling with children, it’s a good idea to get a general pediatrics checkup before your trip. This ensures they are up-to-date on vaccinations and healthy enough for travel. After your trip, consider a follow-up exam if your child becomes ill abroad.
When should you make an appointment for a pre-travel consultation and vaccinations?
Travel health consultations are essential when visiting countries or geographical areas with higher health risks, such as parts of Africa, Asia, Central and South America, and the Middle East. By consulting a doctor well in advance, you can ensure that you are adequately prepared and protected against potential health hazards during your trip.
It is best to schedule a travel health consultation six to eight weeks before your departure date. This allows the vaccines and medications to take effect or for another dose, if necessary. However, even if your trip is coming up sooner, you can still benefit from last-minute advice and recommendations.
For a safe and healthy journey, contact us in time before your trip to schedule your consultation at our Travel Clinic
