FAQ

Clinic travel health

Travel consultation is a comprehensive service. Our nurses are aware of epidemics and disease outbreaks around the world, as well as the different risks associated with different destinations. Constantly updating our nurse’s knowledge enables them to determine the real risk of each travel destination based on the activities you plan to do there. During your travel consultation, they’ll advise you on the precautions you need to take specifically for your destination, suggest any vaccinations you may need, and prescribe preventive medication if necessary.

Not necessarily! It depends on your destination, the required vaccines, and how soon you’re departing. Some vaccines, like those for hepatitis A or yellow fever, require a few weeks to become fully effective. Others, such as the typhoid vaccine, can provide protection more quickly and may be administered even at the last minute.

 

In any case, it’s crucial to visit a travel clinic as soon as possible. Even if some vaccines take time, other preventive measures can be implemented, such as antimalarial medications, food and water safety tips, or recommendations to avoid mosquito bites.

 

Don’t let timing discourage you! A consultation will help you understand the risks and make the best decisions to safeguard your health, even with an upcoming departure.
