Travel Center
——
From medical guidance to vaccinations, we’ll help you stay healthy while you travel.
If you’re planning a trip outside of the United States, visit our Travel Center before you go. We provide complete travel medicine services for patients ages 15 and older. And we can help lower your chances of getting a serious illness while traveling.
Our infectious disease and travel medicine experts will go over your travel plans and find out if you need any vaccinations. They’ll also give you medical guidance about food, water and other possible health risks for the areas you’ll be visiting.
Please schedule your appointment two to eight weeks before your trip. This allows enough time for any needed vaccinations. If necessary, however, we can see you on shorter notice. To make an appointment, call 1-206-860-4447.

Video: Travel Center At The Polyclinic
Dr. Trinh: So yes where are you going here?
[Background music]
Dr. Trinh: Here at the Polyclinic travel center, we provide detailed advice and counsel specific to your itinerary to make sure to maximize the health and to ensure that you don’t pick up anything you don’t want to pick up overseas or bring back anything that you don’t want to bring back. The travel map was created as a fun representation to see all the places that our patients were going to. It’s very exciting to see that they’ve been all over the world, every corner of the globe. I think it’s fun for them to see that they are a part of this bigger community of global travels. For the staff, I think it’s fun for us to see all the fun and exotic places that people are going to and have an opportunity to daydream or even you know plan our next vacation.
Troy Christensen, Travel Center Patient: So a good friend and I are going to go to Bali Indonesia and we’re gonna also check out New Zealand and a couple islands in the South Pacific so it’s a pretty involved itinerary. It’s nice to come here and do a really thorough review. Just easy to work with, easy to communicate with, they listen to you so because there’s some kind of big concerns when you go abroad like this if you have any interest in your health and staying safe and healthy while you’re away. I would definitely come back you know they give you some really good in-depth ideas and thoughts on how to keep yourself healthy abroad.
Dr. Trinh: So starting in August we will be opening up hours on Saturday morning and afternoon to better fit the busy schedule of our globe traveling patients. We think you can never plan too early so we encourage all of our patients to come in just give themselves a few months before they leave to learn about all the health and safety data that prevent any potential health risks overseas or and also to promote health and safety as well.
