Travel consultation
Look for appointment timesTravel consultation is necessary when planning a trip. Travel medical advice is necessary to mitigate health risks for the traveller. The appropriate time to come for a consultation is four to six weeks before the planned trip.
During the consultation, we will assess the health risks based on the destination, time of year, duration and nature of the trip and the availability of healthcare services. Travel consultation is individual, meaning we take into account the traveller’s age, sex, previous vaccinations, underlying medical conditions, daily medications, allergies and previous travel experience.
During the travel consultation, we will provide specific recommendations for vaccinations and malaria prophylaxis as well as on how to prepare a travel pharmacy. If necessary, we will discuss various aspects of travelling with children.
We will record all vaccinations administered by us in your vaccination passport. If necessary, we will issue a new passport. We will send you a reminder if you need to be vaccinated again.
Two people who are travelling to the same destination can come together for an appointment. Depending on your health status, you can choose between an appointment with an infectious disease doctor and an appointment with a nurse.
