Ensure your health and safety wherever you are
Your Calgary Travel Clinic
Minimize the health risks of international travel for you and your loved ones with the help of your Preventous team. We are your personal travel clinic in Calgary and will do everything possible to ensure your health and safety wherever you are.
Travel safely for business or pleasure with our unique Calgary travel clinic service. After we review the details of your itinerary and perform a risk analysis, you will receive a detailed review of your destination and the recommended precautions. Preventous will then aid you in instituting the preventative measures (vaccinations, prophylactic medications, etc.) necessary prior to your departure.
Virtual Travel Consultations
Virtual consultations are available for our Travel Clinic. Health and safety are essential now more than ever and we are here to help wherever you travel.
Health and safety information about COVID-19
Plan Ahead
We recommend you seek advice as soon as possible prior to travelling because certain vaccines such as yellow fever must be given at least 10 days prior to departure. Your official certificate, required as proof of receipt of the yellow fever vaccine, must be post-dated 10 days after the vaccine to accommodate the period of time it takes your body to build immunity.
Your Initial Consultation
When you first call Preventous to book an appointment with our Calgary travel clinic, our staff will ask you about your travel itinerary. From this information our pre-travel health consultant will put together a Travel Report, which contains all relevant information relating to the country or countries you plan to visit.
Your comprehensive Travel Report contains information such as:
- Recommended vaccinations and their risks and benefits
- Malaria and yellow fever risk area maps
- Signs, symptoms, prevention and treatment of diseases for which you may be at risk
- Food and beverage precautions
- Insect and sun protection
- Diarrhea and dehydration precautions
- Canadian consulate information for your destination
- Crime avoidance tips
- Fitness-to-fly assessment
- Recommendations for travelling with your children
- Packing a travel medical kit
Vaccines
Once your initial consultation is complete you will receive your vaccinations on the same day. You will then be asked to book follow up appointments if booster shots are needed.
Preventous is a designated Yellow Fever Vaccination Centre.
Adverse Reactions
With a team of doctors and medical staff on the premises, Preventous is the ideal place to be should you suffer any adverse reactions.
