Introduction Planning a trip is difficult enough without having to worry about getting sick.
If you've ever suffered an illness far from the comforts of home, you know how important it is to try to minimize the health risks of traveling abroad. But obtaining accurate and current information is not always easy. The Palo Alto Medical Foundation is a leading authority on health risks throughout the world. Our Travel Medicine Service provides immediate access to an international network of medical information that is gathered and regularly updated by international health organizations. With the touch of a computer key, we can print out information on specific health hazards and disease outbreaks at your destination.
