TravelWell is an Emory Healthcare affiliated program aimed at providing pre- and post-traveler health services to international travelers.  We provide the best advice on travel, prescribe appropriate medications, and communicate answers to travelers' needs and concerns.  Make sure to print out and take with you this essential Handbook for Travel Health (PDF) containing information you need before, during and after your travels.

Given Atlanta's grand diversity, its enrichment in research through the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), and its role as a main hub for international travel, we at TravelWell are committed to ensure that you are well informed about potential infectious risks of visiting foreign countries, especially underdeveloped nations in Africa, Asia, South and Central America, and the Middle East. A thorough pre-trip evaluation at our TravelWell clinic includes:

• Addressing travelers' initial concerns or fears of traveling to a specific country
• Advice on how to avoid (or treat) common travel nuances or infections, like jet lag or travelers' diarrhea
• Detailed description of immunization recommendations from the CDC and World Health Organization (WHO)
• All immunizations, medicines, and vaccinations are provided
