Travel Medicine

Overseas travel exposes you to wonderful new experiences, but it can also expose you to potentially serious health risks. Remember – your health is your responsibility – with a bit of preparation, you can prevent an illness that could ruin your holiday, or worse. Increasing globalization in travel increases the risk of travel-related illnesses and other health exposures; therefore, travelers need accurate advice about these potential risks. Only a small number of travelers seek pre-travel health advice given that there is a general lack of awareness of travel health issues and that travel health services are not insured under government health plans. Our doctors refer to the available data on travel medicine and will advise you on the appropriate vaccinations and precautions required for your travel.
