Meet our Travel Doctors
Why See a Travel Doctor?
Visiting a travel doctor is an important step before travelling internationally, especially to regions where diseases like yellow fever, malaria, or typhoid are prevalent. Our expert doctors are trained to assess your individual health needs, taking into account your destination, activities, and medical history. This tailored approach ensures that you receive the appropriate immunisations and vaccines required to safeguard your health during your trip.
What Happens During a Travel Medicine Appointment?
During your appointment, our expert travel doctor will:
-
Discuss your travel itinerary in detail to determine potential health risks.
-
Review your vaccination history and administer the necessary travel vaccinations including yellow fever, rabies, and typhoid vaccinations, as well as malaria chemoprophylaxis.
-
Provide advice on disease prevention, including tips for avoiding mosquito-borne diseases, managing food and water safety, and dealing with potential medical emergencies while abroad.
-
Offer guidance on managing chronic conditions while travelling, such as diabetes or asthma, ensuring you’re well-prepared.
Vaccinations and Yellow Fever Certification
Our clinic is a certified provider of yellow fever immunisations. Some countries require proof of a yellow fever vaccination before entry including Africa, South and Central America, Asia and the Caribbean, making it a crucial part of your travel preparation. Our travel doctors will provide you with the official yellow fever certificate, which is valid for life and essential for entry into certain regions.
Medicare and Private Health Rebates
At MyLife Medical, we aim to make travel health services accessible. Medicare rebates are applicable to part of your consultation, depending on the services provided. Additionally, if you have private health insurance, you may be eligible for further rebates on your travel vaccinations. Our team will help you navigate these options to ensure you get the most value from your coverage.
