Passport Health

We used them Christmas Eve, and at the last minute. This is a sudden trip. I researched what was required and recommended prior, but we ended up spending much more than planned. The staff was friendly and professional. Ted was awesome. He tried to up-​sell the shots, but we only ended up buying six extra shots after he delivered a lengthy and informative consultation. We all needed a Tetanus booster, and I bet most also do. The shots only hurt a little, but he was so skilled at giving shots that our son took all three without crying or flinching; the last time he was given shots, he was restrained by four large male nurses. I was so pleased that they had nets that I didn’t even care about the price, which were 50% higher than calculated. We wholeheartedly support «Nothing But Nets» and are willing to pay more so that the truly poor can buy them for less. I felt he tried to discourage us from buying the water bottles in favor of buying a larger water filter at REI, but our health is our primary concern so we bought both. We are not looking forward to paying for the prescriptions, but since they cost less than the disease they prevent, we will. They performed well above our unreasonably high expectations.

I got my immigration physical exam done here. The instructions I got on the phone prior to the exam regarding what to bring were accurate and clear. The needed blood work was done right then and there together with the physical. The needed forms will be ready next week for pick up. All staff very friendly and helpful. Despite the waiting time being a little long for me today, I am happy. Five stars.

Great service! Happy withe the experience they have with travelers. Easy going staff. They explained requirements to me in a very knowledgeable way. It was also nice that they had copies of immigration and other important forms that are often used.
PS. Great photo collection on that wall.

Not at all happy. My consultation back in November told me that the Hep A vaccine included a booster shot and I should come back in a few months for the booster. She indicated that the booster was an included part of the price. I was blindsided today when I was asked to pay and additional $ 105 for the booster. Such a rip off. I would NEVER recommend this place to anyone

We used Passport Health this morning. We are very pleased with the service received. I had checked the CDC website ahead of time and knew exactly what was recommended. The nurse did not try to ‘upsell’ us; I felt her advice was all appropriate. They prepared a detailed booklet of health and travel advice specifically for us on the country we will be visiting. The cost was comparable to the estimate I had gotten when looking for travel immunizations for my son– which also would not have been covered by insurance. We got a discount on the office visit charge with two spouses going together.
No insurance plans accepted, use all major credit cards. Parking on the side in a lot shared by other businesses in this area of remodeled industrial buildings. The general area has ‘gentrified’ and looks clean and safe.

If you are traveling to a foreign land better get your immunizations. These nice folks will help. Be careful of the up-​sells and do some research before you go, but you absolutely want to make sure you are immunized and taking prophylactic medication for endemic diseases in the area you are traveling. Know that your insurance probably will not cover any of this, but you don’t wan’t to get Malaria just to stick them with the bill later :-).
