This includes addressing the potential health risks associated with international travel, such as infectious diseases, injuries, and other health concerns that may arise during a trip.

1. Travel Vaccines
Our doctors will work with you to schedule vaccines according to your health, itinerary, and budget. See below our Vaccination menu :
NOTE: Consultation Fee is charged in addition to the vaccination fee. The other vaccinations are available on request basis.
2. Immigration Medical Exams
An Immigration Medical Exam (IME) is a series of medical examinations doctors perform to determine whether or not someone is medically admissible to go abroad.
The people who need to take the IME vary from country to country but mainly include applicants for permanent residency, short-term residents (planning to stay for more than 6 months), and people who wish to study abroad.
Our team, under the guidance of Dr. Paul Yonga, is well versed with the various Embassy requirements having undertaken immigration health consultancies for various Embassies and Missions, and is accredited in performing immigration medical exams for South Africa, Greece, Spain, Saudi Arabia, and China, as well as offering adult and adolescent vaccinations as part of the I-693 United States immigration requirements.
