North Vancouver Travel Clinic FAQ
Travel consultation is a one-on-one appointment with a travel health nurse to help you prepare for a safe and healthy trip. During the visit, the nurse will review your travel plans, destinations, and health history to identify any risks you may face while abroad. You’ll receive clear, personalized advice on recommended or required vaccines based on your past immunizations, as well as tips on staying safe with food and water, and avoiding insect and animal bites. If needed, the nurse can also provide medications for things like malaria prevention, traveler’s diarrhea, or altitude sickness. In most cases, vaccines and medications can be given during the same visit, unless additional doses are needed before your trip. This service is especially helpful if you’ve never had travel vaccines before, aren’t sure what boosters you need, or want to get medications for your trip.
Vaccination appointment is a quick 15-min appointment to receive a single vaccine. This service is for individuals who only need a single vaccine (ie. a booster dose of Typhoid vaccine) and do not need any travel medicine and/or vaccine recommendations.
TB FAQS
Unfortunately, we do not do direct-billing for TB Skin Tests. Our clinic will give you an invoice after your appointment and you can submit the claim to your insurance for reimbursement.
