Temporary Reduction in Services

Immunization services are provided through Baylor Travel Medicine for those traveling outside the United States. Until full consultative services are restored Dr Jane Corboy will provide advice and prescriptions for preventive medications for altitude related conditions and infections, as well as immunizations for travelers. Please advise the scheduler your appointment is for travel.

If your travel requires more information such as extensive review of food/water precautions, and other safety issues numbers of other Houston-area travel services providers can be obtained by calling 713-798-7700. Baylor Travel Medicine is NOT affiliated with these clinics – so please call the clinics before you go to ensure they provide the services you need.

We apologize for the inconvenience and look forward to the return of full-service travel medicine support.

The time to schedule a visit to Baylor Travel Medicine is as soon as you begin planning an international journey (preferably 4-6 weeks before departure), to allow time for vaccinations to provide maximum protection.

Our experienced Travel Medicine staff is available to help all international travelers, including:

• Pre-travel assessments to identify and reduce potential health risks while abroad
• Customized, in-depth reports compiled from the authorities – including the World Health Organization, Centers for Disease Control and U.S. Department of State – on health and safety risks for your destinations
• Recommendations for and administration of immunizations required for entry or for health protection
• International Certificate of Vaccination document
• Food and water precautions
• Prescriptions for illness/disease prevention and self-treatment
• Contact information for embassies and recommended medical facilities (where available)
• Recommendations for preparing a personal travel kit
• Physical exams and lab work (may require an additional appointment)
