Passport Health, a leading provider of travel health services, has recently expanded its reach to the Rochester area. With a growing number of individuals seeking advice and assistance before traveling internationally, Passport Health saw the need for a dedicated clinic in Rochester to cater to the increasing demand for travel health services.
The new Passport Health clinic in Rochester offers a wide range of travel health services, including pre-travel consultations, vaccinations, and personalized travel health plans. The clinic is staffed by experienced travel health professionals who are dedicated to providing top-notch care and advice to individuals planning to travel abroad.
“We are thrilled to be able to bring our expertise and services to the Rochester community,” said Dr. Emily Johnson, the lead travel health provider at the Rochester clinic. “Traveling internationally can expose individuals to a variety of health risks, from infectious diseases to foodborne illnesses. Our goal is to help travelers stay healthy and safe during their trips by providing them with the information and vaccinations they need.”
In addition to pre-travel consultations and vaccinations, the Rochester clinic also offers services such as medication recommendations, destination-specific health advice, and assistance with travel health insurance. The clinic is equipped to provide care for individuals of all ages, from children to seniors, and can accommodate individuals with complex medical conditions or special health needs.
“We understand that each traveler is unique, and we take the time to create personalized travel health plans for each of our clients,” said Dr. Johnson. “Whether you are planning a backpacking trip through Southeast Asia or a business trip to Africa, we can help you stay healthy and safe during your travels.”
One of the key services offered at the Passport Health clinic in Rochester is yellow fever vaccination, which is required for entry into certain countries in Africa and South America. Yellow fever is a serious disease that is transmitted by mosquitoes and can be fatal if left untreated. The clinic also provides other important vaccinations, such as typhoid, hepatitis A and B, and rabies, to protect travelers from common travel-related illnesses.
“I highly recommend getting vaccinated before traveling internationally, especially if you are visiting a region where infectious diseases are prevalent,” said Dr. Johnson. “Vaccinations are a simple and effective way to protect yourself and your loved ones from potentially dangerous diseases.”
In addition to vaccinations, the Passport Health clinic in Rochester provides individuals with important information about how to stay healthy while traveling, such as tips for preventing traveler’s diarrhea, mosquito-borne illnesses, and altitude sickness. The clinic also offers travel health kits that contain essential items such as insect repellent, sunscreen, and first-aid supplies.
“We want our clients to have a safe and enjoyable travel experience, and that starts with proper preparation and planning,” said Dr. Johnson. “By taking the necessary precautions and following our recommendations, travelers can minimize their risk of getting sick or injured while abroad.”
The opening of the Passport Health clinic in Rochester comes at a time when more Americans are traveling internationally than ever before. According to the U.S. Travel Association, overseas travel by Americans has been steadily increasing in recent years, with over 90 million Americans traveling abroad in 2018 alone.
“With more people traveling internationally, there is a greater need for travel health services to help individuals stay healthy while abroad,” said Dr. Johnson. “We are proud to be able to serve the Rochester community and provide them with the care and support they need to have a safe and enjoyable travel experience.”
