Did you know that you may be exposed to a life threatening disease when traveling to a foreign country?

Most travelers prepare extensively for foreign travel but forget to check on recommendations from the CDC and WHO regarding health risks.

Consult with one of our travel health specialists regarding required or recommended vaccinations, malaria risks and avoiding traveler’s diarrhea.  We recommend this at least 4 – 6 weeks prior to your departure.
