Any requested vaccines and medications will be at an additional cost/copay.
Please stop by the pharmacy or contact us to acquire our most recent travel consultation form. It is necessary to fill this out and turn it in several days before the appointment so that we can properly prepare for the appointment.
It is best to schedule your travel consultation appointment at least 28 days before traveling to allow time for potential vaccines, medicines to take full effect. Please also that, as a "live"-attenuated vaccine, that the yellow fever vaccine cannot be administered within 28 days of another live vaccine. Depending on what is needed, if traveling to an area with endemic malaria or yellow fever, the appointment must be scheduled at a minimum of 10 days before arriving in the malaria or yellow fever area.
Yellow fever vaccine is now available at Howard's Drug. Please speak to a pharmacist and request that we order it and allow 3 weekdays for us to order and receive the vaccine. The Yellow Fever vaccine is only available as a part of a paid travel consultation visit.
Cost for one dose of YV-VAX = $200
This cost includes us providing you with a stamped, "International Certificate of Immunization" after vaccination.
Yellow fever is prevalent in sub-Saharan Africa and tropical South America. If you are planning to travel to these areas, it is recommended that you get vaccinated against yellow fever before your trip. You should also take personal protective measures against insect bites while traveling; we will advise you during your appointment on mosquito-bite avoidance measures.
