Cedars-Sinai Travel Medicine and Immunization Services

The clinical pharmacist Hovik Mekhjian was excellent. He provided me with a personalized booklet that included lots of helpful general travel information such as food and water safety, and he had included maps of the areas to which I had stated I was traveling to demonstrate where the malaria risks were. All of his vaccination and medication recommendations were personalized and appropriate to only where I was planning to travel. He spent thirty minutes chatting with me in detail about how to protect myself from mosquitos, the mechanisms of the vaccinations, preventing and treating travelers’ diarrhea, and more. He was very pleasant and humorous and competent. The clinic itself also offers over the counter products such as DEET and Imodium at prices that are comparable to Amazon which saves the time of ordering online or going to a pharmacy. All around great experience and would highly recommend to any traveler requiring vaccines and info.
