Travel Health
Plan ahead with immunizations, information and prescriptions to reduce your risk of disruptions from illnesses and injuries. Sarah will consider your medical history, age and previous travel. She will customize your travel health plan according to your itinerary. A winter business meeting in Beijing requires a very different plan from an Amazon River basin rainforest excursion or volunteer work in an orphanage in Ethiopia.

Groups Traveling
Does your church, school or club have a group trip coming up? What do people need to know before they go? Do they need vaccinations or prescriptions?
Call Safari Health to schedule a meeting for the group (and parents of young people traveling).
We will talk about specific vaccinations recommended and required, where to get vaccinations, food and water precautions, how to avoid malaria and other diseases from insect bites, as well as other risks specific to the destination and plan.
The cost is just $150 for the group meeting.
Any group member attending the meeting who chooses Safari Health for vaccines and prescriptions will have $15 deducted from the fee for their visit.
