When should I get travel vaccines before my trip?

We recommend booking your appointment 4-6 weeks before travel, as some vaccines require multiple doses to be fully effective.

Does insurance cover travel vaccines?

Routine vaccines (Flu, Tdap) are often covered. Specialized travel vaccines (Typhoid, Yellow Fever) are typically self-pay. We can verify your benefits during your visit.

Do you provide proof of vaccination for travel?

Yes, we provide official immunization records (International Certificate of Vaccination or Prophylaxis) often required for customs entry.
