Travel Immunizations

We help you plan ahead to stay healthy while traveling. Make our Travel Clinic part of your pre-travel planning. Being informed about the health risks associated with your travels will increase your chances of a healthier and happier trip.

As soon as you decide to travel abroad, call to schedule an appointment to find out if there are special health needs for your trip. We will ask a few questions about your health/immunization history and about your travel plans – where you’ll be going, how long you will stay and what kind of accommodations you’ll have.

To schedule an appointment, call 770-339-4260. You’ll be referred to the Health Center closest to you. It is best to schedule your appointment at least 4 weeks prior to departure. Appointments may take 45 min-1hr minutes, longer for families.

During your travel consultation, we will review and offer vaccinations recommended and required.  You will learn about the major health risks that you may encounter while you travel abroad and how to protect yourself.

We will review your health and immunization history and any medications you are currently taking along with medications recommended for your trip. You will also receive a comprehensive information packet that will detail current health concerns and precautions to take related to your destination, as well as;  literature on how to protect yourself from insect, food and water-borne illnesses during your travel.

Please bring to the appointment the phone number for your pharmacy.
