Holy Redeemer Travel Medicine and Immunization Services

Just as you rely on the professional expertise of a travel agent to plan your trip, consulting with a travel health physician is equally important. Your pre-travel consultation, which is directed by Dr. Michael Lucca, MD, who is certified in travel medicine, includes:

  • Assessment of your health history and medical needs based on your travel itinerary
  • Alerts about health information specific to your travel destinations
  • Determination for and administration of required immunizations
  • Prescriptions for any necessary travel-related medications
  • Precautionary health and safety tips specific to your travel plans

The Holy Redeemer Travelers’ Health & Immunization Center is a state-certified yellow fever vaccine center, an important resource for individuals bound for parts of Central and South America, Africa or other mosquito-infested areas.

Planning for your Pre-Travel Health Consultation

To get the most from your pre-travel health consultation, please be sure to:

  • Schedule an appointment at least eight weeks prior to your trip to allow for multiple doses of required vaccines
  • Bring your travel itinerary for analysis of regional health issues
  • Be prepared to provide detailed information about your current health status and your vaccination history

Traveling Safely

In addition to your pre-travel health consultation, it is wise to prepare-before you leave- for medical and non-medical emergencies that could happen while traveling. We recommend that you always keep the following with you as you travel out of the country:

  • Passport
  • Health history
  • Medications
  • Physician contacts 
  • Immunization information
  • Health insurance information
