Yes. If your travel plans include international destinations, it's important to check whether vaccines or immunizations are required or recommended. Many countries have health entry requirements to protect travelers from diseases like yellow fever, typhoid, or malaria. Being up to date on travel vaccinations helps prevent illness and reduces the risk of denied entry at border crossings.

While we do not administer vaccines, our providers can advise on which travel immunizations you may need based on your itinerary and risk level. We also prescribe malaria travel medicine when appropriate and can help you locate local clinics or health departments where required vaccines are administered.

The CDC traveler destination page is an excellent resource. It provides a country-by-country list of vaccine recommendations, travel health notices, and up-to-date alerts for infectious disease outbreaks. We encourage all patients to review it prior to booking international travel.
