The opportunity to travel internationally, participate in cultures around the world and meet new people can be exhilarating and exciting, but as with all great adventures, a little preparedness can go a long way. Taking the recommended precautions against infections and illness is the first step for safe travel. Many parts of the world still face epidemics and outbreaks of malaria, yellow fever and food borne hepatitis (hepatitis A) to name a few. A visit to the Brown Medicine Travel Clinic provides up-to-date medical advice, needed vaccines, and any necessary prescriptions before your travel plans take off.
We care for infants, children and adults. Our experienced clinical staff are faculty at the Alpert Medical School of Brown University and Board Certified Infectious Disease Specialists. Our physicians are on staff at The Miriam Hospital and Rhode Island Hospital. We provide comprehensive up-to-date travel advice including pre-travel health assessments, malaria prevention, prevention and treatment of traveler’s diarrhea, as well as all necessary vaccines. Travel during Covid can be an added challenge. Staff at our Travel Clinic will be able to provide you with up-to-date country specific recommendations on pre-travel testing.
The Brown Medicine Travel Clinic is an authorized Yellow Fever vaccination center by the Rhode Island Department of Health and provides an International Certificate of Vaccination.
