What to Ask When Choosing a Clinic-- Is the clinic affiliated with a well-known hospital? Has it been in operation at least five years? -- Are the physicians trained in infectious diseases or tropical medicine? Have they ever practiced or done research in a remote area? -- Do the practitioners keep up-to-date by regularly attending seminars offered by the International Society of Travel Medicine and the American Society of Tropical Medicine & Hygiene? -- Does the clinic follow Centers for Disease Control and World Health Organization guidelines? -- Can the clinic administer the yellow fever vaccine? This inoculation requires licensing, so approved clinics are likely to be reputable.
